Why does it? Tattoo's are about your own personal style and expressing yourself.

It doesn't matter if it's AI generated or not. Also these can be a great start to take to a real artist and then they can work off that if you want.

Everybody is different, but for the people I know with tattoos picking an artist and having them create a design based on their input was a big part of getting their tattoos.

At the end of the day, if that's not a big part of it for other people then more power to them. AI generated at least ensures some level of image quality.

To me, it has all the charm of a brick.

>based on their input was a big part of getting their tattoos.

For me, as someone with ~70% of my body covered, I would have no problem using AI-generated images as part of that input.

I'm not just going to get whatever the model spits out as a 1:1 tattoo. But when I have a hard to describe idea, having some references in my pocket to pull out and say "something sort of like this" is helpful.
