Some AI papers have a finding so good you just want to quote it everywhere. But many turn out to be trash. They’ve got bad statistics, they’ve got bad methodology, they’re really sales pieces, or t…

    I wasn’t talking about end to end animation and neither was he in the first comment.

    Animations are complex multi step processes. I’m mainly saying AI can help and outright do some of these steps. It’s not currently perfect and I don’t think anyone should be forced to use this but I do think it will become common.

      Each individual step is part of that whole process, and throwing trash into that process at any point renders the end product as trash. There are no steps it can do without humans wasting their time fixing its output when they could have just had a real artist do it right the first time instead.

      Revisions are a huge time sink in animation, and this is basically a problem generating machine. It’s not a fixable part of gen AI, because it doesn’t think and can’t make decisions like an artist can. It’s only going to give you a probabilistic image based on your input. That is basically the complete opposite of what animators need.

      This stupid ass bubble of gen AI getting shoved where it’s unwanted and useless is long overdue to pop.
