- daniel_reetz 5y agoThis is actually very prescient. In many ways it is much easier to replace artists than labor, contrary to the current narrative. A simple example in visual effects are "artist guided tools". Instead of having a team of artists place and guide every virtual hair, you have a single artist draw a curve for the hair to follow, and the computer figures out the rest. There are dozens of examples like this in the world right now.
