AI Art Policy

---

The sale or display of AI-generated artwork (“AI Art”) is prohibited at CAVE for all guests, artists, exhibitors, and vendors. For this policy, AI Art is defined as any artwork generated wholly or primarily by a machine.

Any individual found selling or displaying AI-generated artwork will be required to remove the material immediately and may be subject to removal from the event without a refund.

CAVE considers any work created using AI systems trained on or sourcing from materials that the artist does not own or have rights to violate this policy. If tools become available that allow artists to generate work exclusively from content they own or have rights to, the burden of proof will rest with the artist to demonstrate compliance.

CAVE does not support the use or display of AI-generated artwork within the venue. As a community-driven event, CAVE is committed to supporting and fairly compensating human artists for their work and contributions.
