Riot Games has pulled a promotional poster after fans pointed out it seemed to have been made using AI.
After thanking an eagle-eyed viewer for pointing out the strangeness of a hand in banner art on Netflix itself, Riot Games called the image “a mistake [that] has since been removed” and asserted its “strict stance” against AI.
“Appreciate you bringing this to our attention,” wrote brand lead for Riot Games and Arcane, Alex Shahmiri.
“We have a strict stance of no AI for anything relating to Arcane ’cause it’s disrespectful to the incredible artists who worked on the show,” he added. “This image was a mistake and has since been removed. [Thank you] again for calling it out.”
