Illustrator withdraws from Bradford Literature Festival over AI-generated publicity images

Illustrator Chris Mould withdrew from the Bradford Literature Festival after learning that the festival used AI-generated images for its publicity. Mould, who was due to hold a masterclass, said the use of AI undermined his work and his message about creative careers. The festival acknowledged it should have been more explicit about the use of AI tools.
