This is not about any specific case. It's just a theoretical scenario that popped into my mind.

For context, in many places is required to label AI generated content as such, in other places is not required but it is considered good etiquette.

But imagine the following, an artist is going to make an image. Normal first step is search for references online, and then do the drawing taking reference from those. But this artists cannot found proper references online or maybe the artist want to experiment, and the artist decide to use a diffusion model to generate a bunch of AI images for reference. Then the artist procedes to draw the image taking the AI images as references.

The picture is 100% handmade, each line was manually drawn. But AI was used in the process of making this image. Should it have some kind of "AI warning label"?

What do you think?

Why not do it the opposite way? Mark all the artisanal hand drawn images with some artisan guild marker that marks their "pureness". If the creator of the image is found to have ever looked at an image made by a mere peasant, kick them out of the guild.

Isn't that literally how art guilds in the middle ages operated? Like if you weren't part of the guild and tried to sell art you made, a mob from the guild would come along, destroy all your works, and probably beat the shit out of you for good measure?
