A Toronto market programmer is responding to critics who questioned their use of AI-generated art in the promotion of one of their ongoing events. The market's development manager, Jennifer Forde, has been running the event since 2017, and also manages three other markets across the city, including the Scarborough Farmers' Market, Courtyard Farmers' Market and the North York Farmers' Market. "I told them that since they don't seem interested in supporting my product (human art) I won't be supporting their product. We have South Asian, Asian, African, Caribbean, Persian, Muslim vendors — vendors that don't usually have the opportunity to get into larger markets." The Nathan Phillips Square Farmers' Market runs every Wednesday until Oct. 8, 2025.
