K13's AI Usage Statement

Updated: Jun 10

Greetings from K13!

As the founder of this emerging publishing venture, I am eager to maintain transparency with our readers and share my vision for blending human creativity with the potential of generative AI technology. At K13, our mission is to create captivating and engaging entertainment while exploring new storytelling methods that combine tradition and technology, fostering innovation and creativity.
I understand and respect the concerns surrounding AI in the arts, particularly regarding its impact on artists. At K13, we view AI as a tool that enhances our creative workflow without diminishing the value of human creativity. By integrating generative AI with 3D renders, traditional art, digital illustrative techniques, and real-world photography, we craft vivid and multidimensional scenes. This approach allows our artists to push the boundaries of graphic storytelling while keeping the human element at the core of our creative process. Each piece of artwork undergoes extensive digital hand-editing, ensuring a distinct human touch in every image.
Furthermore, I want to emphasize that storytelling and writing are fundamental to K13's mission. As an author myself, I am committed to preserving the humanistic integrity of our narrative processes. None of our titles use generative AI for writing or story development, nor will they in the future. However, we do utilize AI to refine marketing copy for the back of our books, a practice we plan to continue.
Generative AI democratizes graphic storytelling by making high-caliber visual storytelling tools accessible to everyone. It amplifies human creativity rather than replacing it, ensuring our narratives retain their human essence. My commitment is to forge a path where human creativity remains at the heart of our endeavors, enriching both artists and readers alike. Thank you for joining me on this exciting journey.
— Brian James Gage, Founder, K13
