AI Yearbook Controversy at Central High | Baton Rouge News

Central High’s yearbook sparked outrage when AI-generated photos—especially for superlatives—misrepresented students, with some looking unrecognizable and even the valedictorian’s name being wrong. Critics slammed the school for hypocrisy, given its anti-AI stance, while the yearbook staff blamed tight deadlines and low photo turnout. A digital media teacher defended the AI use, comparing it to old-school clip art and citing trademark issues with Cartoon Network art. Though some students and parents loved the book’s vibrant, cartoonish style, others demanded refunds or reprints, fueling a heated debate over tech, effort, and the value of school memories.
