This sparked a ton of reactions with one fan saying that the issue is with Generative AI. While the fan highlighted how the tool plagiarises real skill and talent when crafting art or writing essays, Asuka questioned if this is truly plagiarism.

While Asuka didn\’t intend to discuss art, the former Women\’s Champion has plenty of artistic talent. Asuka designed several characters for her Kana-Chan TV YouTube channel and served as a graphic designer for the original Nintendo DS. Whether she wishes she could have used AI for this instead, that is unclear, but the Empress of Tomorrow clearly feels the debate about AI in the modern-day is far more nuanced than it seems on the surface.
