Soon we'll have neural networks taking care of most of the animation pipeline. Most animators work long hours for little pay, and in most western countries it's simply outsourced this the third world. There was a bit of drama late last year when the average salaries of Japanese animators were released public.
It would lead to a loss of jobs, however it would also lead to an influx of more diverse content. Flash for example was hailed as saving the western animation industry at the expense of quality.
These techniques will hopefully lead to an increase of both quality and quantity.
