Thoughts on preemptively banning Gen-AI? (ttrpg.network)

I've been reading about the user revolt on the Twin Peaks subreddit calling for a ban on AI art. As best I can tell we don't really have people posting AI stuff here yet, but I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to ban it before it becomes a problem. I'm soliciting feedback from y'all on this, please let me know what you prefer.

That philosophy never, ever works for communities about specific topics, though. Too many people see it in their all or subbed feeds without looking at where it was posted

It's also entirely possible for any individual kind of post, regardless of it being AI or not, to be legitimately decent content for a community but still crowd out other kinds of content that the community wants to promote. That's why many places have specific days for specific kinds of content, like allowing meme posts on Mondays but not other days so that discussions still get to the top

why should I not be allowed to upvote something that I like because it came from AI, just because other people have a moral objection to it?

This principle basically doesn’t allow any restrictions on any kind of content anywhere unless it's explicitly harmful enough to raise that as a separate objection. Why shouldn't I be allowed to upvote hardcore pornography on the news community? It's not a practical way to actually run a community
