- Polish-born artist Greg Rutkowski has had his work used in games such as Dungeons and Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. He said his name had been used as a prompt in AI tools that generate art more than 400,000 times since September 2022 – but without his consent. When he checked, his name had been used as a prompt more times than the artists Pablo Picasso and Leonardo da Vinci.[4] Sources:
