Copying from art sites doesn't destroy the environment and doesn't flood the internet with slop and isn't used to justify firing maaaive numbers of people.

    So when googling icons and using them, do you take note of the source? I've come across many where the artist specifically says not to use the image in tabletops or rpgs or icons or profile pics. You're directly disrespecting the author if you straight up use their image(s) in the tabletop against their wishes.

    As for environmentally-destroying image generators, I only use local models I can run on my own pc. A microwave is 5x more environmentally impactful, and if I want generic_npc_worker_328, I take it as an artistic direction to ai generate a token of said generic_npc_worker_328...

    Using a government logo, a still from a movie, middle age snails riding knights, or something someone made last week are all the same thing when used for non-commercial purposes. I don't care about the artist's opinion when not using it for commercial purposes.
