I think were getting a little to quick to the trigger in shitting on AI. I dont see any problem in what I saw watching the Ted talk. I didn't watch every minute of it but what I saw for what the article is calling AI slop seemed like viable use of AI to create fictional creatures.
From the perspective of a person from this very industry - the examples are at a level of a 10-yo. And the execution is absolutely terrible, even not conisdering it's from ILM.
Might look like any other "CGI" to people from outside the industry, but it absolutely is slop.
Well it either shows how meaningless your job is or that a 10 year old could do your job if the avg viewer thinks everything he showed looked as good as any other graphics out there. Good luck with your whole pretentious artist shtick, hope it serves you well while youre serving bud lights and mixed drinks at whatever bar you be working at after AI replaces you!
There it is.
