Artists’ names are commonly used in text prompts for generating artwork. I ran a test to gauge the impact. I ran four texts in Midjouney; these results are similar to results obtained using stable diffusion and other AI rendering platforms.

Prompt

“a beautiful female in a “space suit,” with alien planet background, by [ artist name]”
