This is a poster, made in a minimalist, Constructivist style that I generated for use in advertising our Twitch series.

Fundamentally, I'm kinda opposed and antithetical to having done it in the first place. And regret it even.

It's great, but now that it exists as a place-holder, the motivation to go out and do my own, independent poster is diminished. The idea being "the need begets the doing".

I'm actually posting this on here so there's a digital record that can be traced to us that we generated it, and there's transparency there, rather than claiming we made the poster ourselves.

In general, though the product is clean, I feel worse for having made it this way for two reasons:  
1. Having had it generated, the generated work will always influence any original work I try to make in the future if I try to re-do this project later, this poster will always be there to be referenced, rather than if I made the poster whole-cloth by myself the first time.  
2. The more the AI tool is used, the more its integrated into a person's creative process and it's a First-Order Optimal Strategy, the easiest, shortest way to achieve a goal, then that person will probably use that strategy. I have about 100 reasons why doing it the harder way is actually better in the long run, and the feeling I have afterwards is enough to inform me that as soon as I can, with quality, quantity and timeliness, I'd like to shift away from using this tech to produce anything, especially a creative project like a tabletop game.

I used it to brainstorm, and now the well feels poison on whether my written world is my own, and it will always feel that way.

I used it to make tokens. Which, is probably the least bothersome, since tokens are often disposable and not focused on too long in game, but it still doesn't sit right with me.

and I used it to make promotional material. This posters style was simple enough this could have been achieved on my own.

Fundamentally, I think there's a level of dishonesty in using these tools, that I recognize moreso in the aftermath of having done so. Especially in marketing materials. If its of a certain quality, it promises to the viewer the product will be that quality as well, which may be a value mis-match.
