Hehe, the non answer you got is spot on what I expected.
Here's the deal: AI tattoo generator, what could possibly go wrong? Liability. That is also why people want to pay, even if the dev cannot or tries not to be held accountable and even if it is for some Electron frontend for a customized prompt. Paying gives them [the (potential) customer] the feeling they get a worthy result. A lot of services work like this, btw, and it helps if the service is actually not cheap. Because why spend very little money on a tattoo design. You're worth it, right?
My take is simple. If you want a tattoo and CBA to do your own research (via a search engine, a professional tattoo artist, some kind of curated database, or gasp CAD it yourself like you'd do your 3D print) then ML-based search could be a viable, modern alternative but I would not want to get burned by '6 fingers' in hindsight. AI output needs to be qualified by a qualified human being, and you [random person who wants tattoo] are probably not said qualified human being. But could it aid a qualified human being? Absolutely, just a smaller customer base. So if you want to go for volume, you pretend to serve a customer base you cannot reasonably serve well.
Eh, I think it's a neat idea. No one's forced to use or buy this - as is the case with any offered service. Also, the 'qualified human being' in the end is still the tattoo artist who's actually doing the tattoo in this use case.
I assume most people who would use this won't just get a 1:1 copy tattoo of an AI generated result, the artist can still reiterate and use the designs as a draft or inspiration.
