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.

Mostly stuff that is not fantasy and not a spaceship

I don't suppose I see all that is happening in modern+ RPG branch (niche?). But I do support a few creators on Patreon, I follow a few creators on DTRPG, I follow a bunch of blogs. And I see all walks of AIGen

things without AIGen that look well good for the creators that they are able to do the content AND a cover image/presentation
things without AIGen that look poor but the content is good I would not hold it against the creators to try improve the looks with AIGen. I know that this is the point we don't agree on, I just wanted to point this out
things with AIGen that have good contents clearly the creators like from the previous point but after taking that decision
things with AIGen that IMO are crap yeah, this is a waste of everything

That's why I'm more in "let downvotes tell the story" camp. Because in the end it's not the use of AIGen that makes a thing bad. It's the decision of the creator that "this is good enough". And without covering the bad stuff too, we are just sweeping it under the rug
