>Maybe, but a small local event or business probably won’t have the budget to hire them or know where to find them. This is funny to read given I am currently on a Japan trip with 3 friends and we actively avoid every small restaurant that have AI generated images of their food. Using AI generated bullshit just shows that you really dont want to put in the work to produce something actually charming. Hell, we've seen a food menu drawn by a toddler and it was infinitely more sympathetic than all the AI generated Wagyu images.

That'll be a real debate at the moment in Japan, I'll bet. Because the law is pretty strict when it comes to accurate advertising.

I was in Japan in Spring, I didn't notice any AI-generated ads/menus (not implying you're lying, just curious if it's become a trend since then, or if it's a particular area). But I recall this simple looking promotion: https://imgur.com/a/fbM8Akb https://imgur.com/a/fbM8Akb . The photo looks professionally done, and not AI. Then again, maybe they googled for "cheesecake photo". I just image searched for "cheesecake", I didn't find this photo in the results, but there are a few results where I now have to wonder "Is that AI?"

Given that any advertisement with AI generated food would be illegal there I don't imagine you have to avoid very many! I just got back from a month there and recall perhaps 2 posters that may have been AI. I actually ran into several public art exhibits as well.
