For 30 years, Magic: The Gathering has been built on the innovation, ingenuity, and hard work of talented people who sculpt a beautiful, creative game. That isn't changing. Our internal guidelines remain the same with regard to artificial intelligence tools: We require artists, writers, and creatives contributing to the Magic TCG to refrain from using AI generative tools to create final Magic products. We work with some of the most talented artists and creatives in the world, and we believe those people are what makes Magic great.

"final Magic products" Them some carefully chosen words. Means they will use AI to come up with something then someone will copy it to be final. They may also take it into Photoshop and remove elements or fix fingers so now the final product is not AI generated.

i think using ai to fill in the rest of a cloud texture or increase the fidelity on a background character's hair is a more likely use case. that's where the real benefit of these tools exists; i doubt most artists are just going to prompt, tinker, done. but there's a lot of work artists do that can be sped up with generative models without compromising the art or the artist
