Still better that some human art

Well, if you look at the text boxes, I don't think it's supposed to be Urbosa or Mipha... Just "inspired by", since the AI Art probably can't replicate those characters as well.
That's a tricky question, from what i've seen, AI image generators need samples to generate images, much like humans draw characters from multiple angles and have to draw over and over, and BoTW characters should be relatively easy to replicate due the game being cellshaded, therefore having multiple screenshots and promo images from various media could be used to generate images of Mipha, hell her brother and other BoTW Zoras can be used as a reference, then the best images could be used as self-referencial material, then you slowly mix porn images on the style of what you want Mipha to end up looking.
See that was my first thought too, but then I went to the dev's itch.io page and it says that the art is by "Lewd-Sama", with a link to Lewd-Sama's patreon. Lewd-Sama is an AI artist, who apparently is selling AI generated art?
This just seems like the worst of both worlds. The dev can't draw by themselves, so they pay someone to do it. But the person they're paying is using AI? Either just use the AI yourself, or pay for a real artist.
There's a logical way to explain it, i'll use myself as an example, my RIG can't run AI, and this is one of the best RIGs where i live
i live in one of those fun places which self-isolated similar to Cuba, i cannot even run novel AI unless i'm relying on the free ones which i don't know what samples they have and my graphics card can still run the latest chinese spyware
