Unsweep the problem under the carpet, and fix it please

Sorry, but not sorry. The response you, Artstation, gave us yesterday just lacks of solid measures. First of all you need to stop the bleeding : ban existing AI generated images, and warn accounts as well, this won't hurt and this is a preventive measure. Next, prevent new AI flood to come by filtering images, other websites are already doing so, they may help you finding the good ressources to protect yourself from this garbage. If this problem remains unsolved, the site will sink down like DeviantArt did, the cool point being you can forsee how it will look like, it's your magic mirror to the future, your little Palantir. But you can still avoid that and cure the site from this problem. AI generation isn't the issue itself, it's how it has been actually trained, and how it's used. If a future AI that can work locally on artist's PC (like a fill "tool" does infact), that would be okay and for sure an interesting tool to use in our own process, but images made 100% with this & based on stolen artworks should definitely have no place here.

Seriously guys, artstation is a professional website made for artists. We're not on social media, keep that in mind.
