This is very relevant to my interests - but it's extremely disappointing to see that the graphics for this were generated by AI. It's a no from me. I can't give my money or time to an organisation that has so little disrespect for human artists. It's even more staggering that this night is in celebration of another human artist.

(PS I'm sure the individual musicians had no say in the decision to use AI-generated images in the promotional material, so I've nothing against them.)

(Edit: If this turns out to not be AI generated, then I will profusely apologise - but also, I can identify dozens of separate pieces of these images that have all the "this doesn't make logical sense" hallmarks of AI, in addition to the general style looking immediately like an AI image.)

Sorry that you are disappointed in the graphics.

AI is involved and It does take many days of refining and selection of keyword + reconstruction using my own time.
Photoshop / Illustrator / InDesign are all used.
"little disrespect for human artists" does not make any sense here.
If the point is about Adobe using creators' works for AI training that's a totally separate topic.

I simply cannot find any suitable artist to produce the style we want, and even if there's a suitable one is going to cost into 4-digits.
The event itself already have base cost of £6000 and counting, with all musicians and other works.

The main goal is to produce the best possible music experience for the audience.
Thank you
