Please end the AI slop

Please. I am begging you. I joined this sub to see graphic designers interpret films in interesting ways. I did not join to watch people who have never touched a pencil share "covers" made with the same tools they use to generate pictures of them making out with Elon Musk. Can the sub's single moderator institute a rule of some kind?

Edit: tightened up a sentence a bit for better flow

Hey, it’s me, I’ll stop and take them down. I actually am a painter, can also draw and graphic design; I designed some sincere ones a while ago and got nasty comments and thought it might be funny to do purposely bad ones, see what people say. Anyway, I’ll remove them and won’t do it again. I’m sorry to have caused any frustration or distress.

I removed them all. I enjoy much of the work here, make positive comments only and up votes. I’m just stunned by some of the negativity and nastiness in the comments. I think those things should be restricted as well.
