   Christ I thought I'd take a quick look on Fab and Itch for some placeholder spell UI icons and 90% of everything is AI slop now 😭

     @sinbad For placeholders you could just use a combo of some icons like: https://fonts.google.com/icons

     @dougbinks Yeah, but I'm a fan of keeping my placeholders at least in rough style

     It's OK, thanks to the "Hide products created with AI" option on Fab I managed to buy something from someone who actually makes things

     @sinbad GenAI could actually be potentially useful here if you could train it on your own art and get it to make variants.

     @dougbinks Maaaaybe - IF we could use a 100% local model and IF we could give it enough data to be useful and IF it could be trained in a reasonable amount of time, but even then, I don't think we'd want to ship anything generated in which case it's a lot of work for nothing, might as well just sketch something, would probably be faster for the number of things we need. Mass generation is only useful for people spamming the content portals and making real artists miserable

     @jkaniarz Thanks but not the style I'm looking for, but it's fine, I've bought something now

     As an aside I loved the FAQ on one of the AI Slop packs “Q. Can I use this for a commercial game? A. Yes, everything is original and created with AI”
