=== AI Art ===
In 2024, the group released the title poster for “Virtual Angel” and faced criticism from fans due to the suspected use of generative artificial intelligence.Tweet, official_artms These concerns were raised again following the release of the poster for “Air,” Tweet by official_artms and then again for the rest of the singles, with each song on the album receiving an AI-generated poster.
Fans began using the "#NO_AI_FOR_ARTMS" hashtag on Twitter to express concerns. A written fan statement circulated amongst Twitter users.See NO_AI_FOR_ARTMS Some fans even boycotted all ARTMS content.[Article on Koreaboo about the issue The concerns were also raised in the official ARTMS discord server. Some fans were blocked or muted.See ARTMS Fan Statement
The complaints was directed towards MODHAUS, specifically CEO Jaden Jeong. He had already been a divisive figure within the fandom, often known for taking unconventional approaches with his K-Pop groups, some of which have been praised, like his invention of the LOONAVERSE. Others like the usage of AI artwork or NFTs, have been widely criticized by fans.
In response to fan concerns, Jaden posted an announcement in the official ARTMS discord, clarifying that the use of AI was purposely done to serve as a critique of the AI landscape. It would only be used in the teasers, not the final album. He also revealed the initial plans: following the AI images, the company would release hand-drawn illustrations of the same images. This lessened fans' concerns, though for some fans, the damage was already done.See screenshot of the Discord message from Jaden Jeong, or direct link to the ARTMS Discord (March 2024)
