* LetsPlay/{{Critikal}} submits various A.I.-generated art prompts in his videos [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiMI6GNgp28 "AI Art is Scary"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVu-bD5keAs "AI Art is Taking Over"]].

* ''Literature/NineteenEightyFour'': The Minitrue uses novel-writing machines, kaleidoscopes and versificators to generate literary works. A sub-section, Pornosec, where worked Julia, uses only six different plots it switches around to create pornographic novels for the proles.

* Black Mirror's "Recap/BlackMirrorJoanIsAwful" has the in-universe Joan Is Awful show be generated by a "quantum computer", where the characters aren't being "acted" but actually using the licensed likeness of real actors.

A number of prominent creators, including Creator/HayaoMiyazaki, Creator/GuillermoDelToro, and Creator/MikeMignola, have protested against the usage of A.I. generated artwork. The integration of A.I.-generation into art websites and programs, such as [=ArtStation=], Website/DeviantArt, and Website/{{Pixiv}}, has sparked heavy protest among online art communities. This has led to some websites, such as Inkblot, Furaffinity, and Website/{{Newgrounds}} preemptively banning the usage of A.I. art on their platforms. Companies such as Celsys (creators of Clip Studio Paint) have withdrawn their plans to include A.I.-integrated tools after backlash by many of their users.

* A.I. artwork programs utilize thousands, if not tens of thousands of artists' works in their machine-learning processes. This has brought up various [[FantasticLegalWeirdness legal and ethical issues]], since many of these artists have not consented to the usage of their artwork in such programs, nor are they compensated for the usage of their artwork. Creator/{{Valve}} has put an official ban on any game that uses AI assets citing the risks of misused copyrighted material as a reason.

* Jimmy [=McGee=]'s video essay "The AI Revolution is Rotten to the Core" discusses that the problem with AI created media isn't so much how it generates the medium it's being used for, but how it's being used to masquerade the hundreds of man-hours spent to improve on and contribute to the database that allows it to work by attributing its growth to ''itself'', whether positively or negatively.

* The ''Franchise/D4DJ'' multimedia franchise (including its video game arm, ''VideoGame/D4DJGroovyMix'') has an in-universe example in [[spoiler:Lumina Ichihoshi, an A.I. VirtualIdol who produces music.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJa1oSgs8Gw A UsefulNotes/SuperBowl ad]] for the animated film ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe4'' depicts a group of [[SeriesMascot Minions]] messing around with A.I. image generation, while poking fun at the technology's quirks.

* ComicBook/JudgeDredd: The Kenny Who? plotline is about a comic book artist who gets replaced by a machine that could draw and write his stories. What makes this interesting is this story was published in 1985 and was originally a satire about creator rights.

* [[AC:Visual Novels]]

* ''VisualNovel/JohnDoe, in both its original version and ''John Doe Plus'', uses AI generated backgrounds throughout the routes. [[spoiler:They are mostly absent in the routes where John Doe alters himself into an approachable, normal man, and only appear again when John goes back to his regular self. This implies that [[HumanoidAbomination John]] is actively altering reality while courting You, which isn't too far a stretch considering he's well aware of the fourth wall.]]

H.T. Webster predicted the use of AIs in a [[https://paleofuture.com/blog/2023/1/18/this-amazing-1923-cartoon-accurately-predicted-the-ai-art-of-the-year-2023 cartoon]] published in 1923 in the New York Word.

* The music video for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obY4c9aqUqs Ich weiß es nicht]]" by Lindemann, (a German/Swedish industrial metal supergroup, consisting of Till Lindemann of {{Music/Rammstein}} and Peter Tägtgren of PAIN, {{Music/Hypocrisy}} and {{Music/Bloodbath}}) off of the ''F & M'' album, uses the majority of A.I.-generated visuals.

* WesternAnimation/GodzillaTheSeries: An interesting example as one episode predicted AI generated images ''twenty'' years before its use became public by having Randy attempt to create a logo by scanning existing artwork and expecting the computer do all the work. The output is an illegible mess of vaguely familiar shapes.
