I think what we need to do is feed the AI generated art into AI and build new models and see what happens! The issue with articles like the original post is that typically they are written, not by animators or artists, but by data scientists. This becomes obvious when they approach animation with a lens of realism. In fact, the photograph has not replaced all visual media because artistic expression goes well beyond a facsimile of what we see and experience. The difference between a Degas and a photograph of a ballerina is multifaceted. Animation is no different, and naturally AI will be a useful tool, but without understanding art in it’s entirety, and without being able to create art oneself, without the aid of a machine will separate the plebs from true artisans. If AI gets to the point where it can have limitless creativity—then I hate to say it but we’re all fu*ed.
