Getting into AI image generation is a deep, deep rabbit hole. There are now tools that would make getting more consistent characters possible, but even so, you would almost certainly need to do some photo editing in addition to image generation if you want to get consistent images. Also, last I had heard a gpu with 8 gigs of vram was the somewhat acceptable bare minimum entry point into running on your own hardware, which you would probably want to do. I am only slightly keeping my eye on the subject, but there are three reddit domains(?) I know of that will be more than enough to get you started. The safe for work one is /StableDiffusion and the other two are the NSFW focused /AdultDiffusion and /sdnsfw.Can you point me toward which devs are doing this? If so I can pick there brains on where to start with this. I really have no idea where to start with my own stuff. Also, if anyone knows a tutorial, I'd appreciate it.
I have only seen one person who was using AI generated stuff for a project, and they were leaving obvious generation flaws (garter straps attached to nothing, hair flowing through things, backwards joints, etc.) in many of the images they were using. As such, I'm not going to discuss specifics about them. If you do decide to go down the route of generating images you will also need to accept that some people be against your project on principle, because some individuals are very unhappy about AI generated images. I wish you the best of luck with whatever you decide to do. Personally, I am totally satisfied with your game without images, but I know I am a minority in my opinion about text only games.
