@cyborg40nyx: Trying to determine if a book cover is AI or not feels like a waste of time. I can easily create an image in Canva, and it's unlikely anyone would be able to tell if it's AI-generated or not. Guess this means all book covers will need to be hand-painted now... #AIArt #BookCovers #GraphicDesign #AIvsHuman #Publishing

If you use AI for your book cover I don’t trust that you didn’t use it for your book.

when it comes to the covers, I understand an indie author using AI. They're already strapped cash having to self-publish and do all their own marketing. Commission art can get pricey and they might not have the resources available

I used a photo from my camera and edited it to add text. Does this look like AI to you, too? [Innocent]

I used AI for my covers at first and I have used my photos and added words and still been accused of AI … the bullying is actually so ridiculous I would rather read a book with an “AI” cover because that’s what attracted me to the book and those people are actually nice !! The boring covers that look like they all used canva and they are mean and I’m not attracted to the book … what happened to don’t judge a book by its cover 🤷🏻‍♀️

Person who hates AI proceeds to throw book cover into a AI detector that uses AI asking if it’s AI. “How dare you use AI”

I am 61 yrs old and have been creating art since I was a kid. Took me decades to get good..now that I've finally feel confident to share my art...I get accused of it being AI. I was getting so upset, but then I quickly realized the accusations were from people that HAVE NO IDEA WTF they are talking about.😏

yep, I got accused on my bookcover for my last book when Im a graphic design artist and it frustrated me so much my next two bookcovers have been hand drawn by me but im sure someone will still try to say its AI- this cover is not AI but it is what it is. I'm proud that my creation is good enough to be considered AI generated.

Right, even before AI very few people used graphic designers, we used Clipart and or Adobe photoshop. People have no clue

It's gatekeeping. it's gatekeeping fueled by legacy publishing if you ask me. another way to keep indie authors down

There are covers (and writing that's pretty obviously bad AI. But there's tons of stuff that could be either way. The fact that AI is trained using human work just means more and more human work will look like AI and vice versa.

KEllis and Adonis.author :
I have a tremendous respect for the talent and work of professional cover designers and artists. But not every independent or new author can afford professional cover design, and even when they can, the finished artwork may not always capture the characters, setting, or atmosphere the author envisioned. AI offers another option for creating a book cover. It allows an author to develop, revise, and refine a visual concept until the cover represents the story they created, at a cost they can afford. Using AI for a book cover does not mean disrespecting artists. It means using an available creative tool. There is room for professional designers, traditional artists, photography, stock images, DIY design, and AI-assisted covers. This also raises a fair question. Programs such as Canva, CapCut, PixVerse, and many other creative platforms are routinely used by creators to produce promotional images, book trailers, advertisements, social media content, and humorous videos, often with AI-assisted features. If an author is criticized for using AI to help create a book cover, where should that line be drawn? An AI-assisted cover does not automatically mean the story behind that cover was created or written by AI. The cover and the writing are two separate parts of producing a book. Should all creators who use AI-assisted tools be judged by the same standard? Should a book cover be judged simply because AI was involved, or should the real questions be whether the author had the right to use the elements involved, whether the process was represented honestly, and whether the finished cover successfully represents the book? Perhaps the better question is not simply, “Was AI used to create this cover?” but, “How was AI used to create it?"

At this point we need to go back to writing in papyrus and hand painting it because apparently according to the witch hunt every new author is using AI which is ridiculous

I’m not for the AI book covers because they look awful to me but I do think it will get to the point that we won’t be able to tell what is AI and what is human made in the next few years. There already is an issue of that happening with AI videos so it’s only a matter of time until we can’t decipher which is real and which is AI.
