Artificially Generated / Edited (AI) Artwork
Anime Milwaukee appreciates the creativity and talents of individual artists. Our goal is to support artists and their content. Taking this into consideration, the sale of all forms of AI-generated art is prohibited within all areas of the AMKE Exhibit Hall, including Artist Alley. Examples include fully AI-generated art, AI-assisted art, editing AI-generated art, overdrawing, or the use of AI art in any manner.

Artists and/or vendors with questionable items will be asked to remove them from the hall. Failure to remove any item when requested by AMKE staff will result in ejection from the exhibit hall and forfeiture of the exhibit space without refund.
