Also one very important aspect of this is that it must be possible to backpropagate the discriminator. If you just have access to inference on a detector of some kind but not the model weights and architecture itself, you won't be able to perform backpropagation and therefore can't generate gradients to update your generator's weights.
That said, yes, GANs have somewhat fallen out of favor due to their relatively poor sample diversity compared to diffusion models.
