Akihabara News (Tokyo) \u2014 The science fiction manga Cyberpunk: Peach John<\/em> is the world\u2019s first manga created entirely with image-generation Artificial Intelligence (AI).<\/p>\n

The author, known only by his pseudonym Rootport, used the Midjourney program to create the images for the work. Midjourney is an AI program created by a San Francisco-based independent research lab.<\/p>\n

Rootport has never drawn a manga by hand and, according to their own statements, is not proficient as an artist.<\/p>\n

Rootport provided characters with particularly eye-catching features, such as dog ears or pink hair, because the Midjourney program is not able to display characters with different facial expressions or in a wide variety of poses. The character designs were, in fact, compiled by the AI based upon verbal descriptions offered by Rootport,<\/p>\n

The production of the manga, which runs a little over one hundred pages, took only six weeks to complete.<\/p>\n

Hand-drawn manga of a similar length routinely take several months or even years to produce.<\/p>\n

One challenge to the spread of AI-generated manga is the issue of copyright. The images are likely to be based upon large datasets of existing works.<\/p>\n

Another question is whether or not AI-generated manga will meet with fan acceptance. For example, many anime fans became upset when it was revealed that AI had been used to compose the entire background setting for a short Netflix film called The Dog and the Boy<\/em>.<\/p>\n
