ArtStation uses AI to analyze user-uploaded content across the platform for safety purposes — including identifying illegal content, fake accounts, unauthorized automation, and policy violations — and also to classify content to improve search and discovery.

ArtStation's Terms of Service explicitly state that Epic uses artificial intelligence and machine learning in its 'Safety and Discovery Tools.' These tools handle safety workloads such as identifying dangerous and illegal content, fraud, spam, unauthorized automation, and fake accounts. In addition to safety, content may be further classified to power search and recommendation services. User-uploaded content is used to train and improve how these tools operate. Epic explicitly states it does not use this content for generative AI training.
