Our policy on Generative AI:

The Red Lark Workshop was born amidst the recent Gen-Z protests challenging India’s right-wing BJP government and the surge of AI-generated visuals created both for and against the cause. We recognize the inevitability and significance of mass creativity enabled by generative AI, despite the social and ecological harms perpetrated by the Big Tech corporations behind these tools. Because large AI models are trained on massive data averages—often ignoring rare or exceptional samples—we are alarmed by the resulting flood of generic, stereotypical visuals. However well-intentioned, these images frequently border on majoritarian forms of racism, sexism, and ableism. Realizing that human creativity and reflection remain unsurpassed and essential for imagining a better world, we advocate for a thoughtful, minimal use of generative AI rather than a complete boycott. The creative works featured in our archive proudly reflect this principle.

How the AI-use badge works

Works declare none, minimal-assisted or generated use, with an explanation. The badge records a declaration; it does not establish ownership or permission. Original AI-assisted test studies are marked generated and placeholder.
