Wondering if there's a polite way to phrase this...

Fic authors, is there a polite way that I, as a commentor, could note someone's use of AI to create fic covers and encourage them to work with one of the many, many talented artists in our fandom instead? I understand not having a lot of spare funds to commission someone, but I think people would be willing to do an exchange or swap or some kind to avoid using AI.

Or is this just a third rail and I'm better off scrolling away?

Edit: thanks everyone for your input, it's tough to balance desire for constructive feedback about a non-written aspect of the author's work with my immediate dislike of how generative AI impacts creatives. This is the first time I've seen the author do this in their work (they're fairly prolific) so I'll hold my peace unless it happens again, in which case I'll review some of your responses and try a polite nudge away from GAI use.
