Disney and Pixar animation are about to get 10,000x - 100,000x cheaper and accessible to nearly anyone.

When applied to the correct domains, AI is incredible.

What good does that do though ? It’ll wipe out entire careers so you can have what ? Cheap cartons ?

Not disagreeing, just curious what makes you think this is so incredible ? Did you not have enough to watch before ?

[echelon]

I want to make. Due to opportunity cost, capital cost, personnel cost - I could never be in that seat.

This will empower fan fiction authors, web comic authors, indie creators, et al. to all reach new heights that they couldn't before.

You won't be making, you'll be generating whatever the model allows you to generate based on copyright restrictions?

To actually think this requires nothing but raw ignorance of the creative process.

[echelon]

You can't draw that conclusion from what I said at all. These are tools.

Good web comics and fan fiction require creativity. They're low cost, but high effort endeavors that are achievable by solo creators.

Now there's a path appearing that will give this same class of people the tools to reach new creative heights that most could never achieve by themselves.

This is a good thing. It's a tool. You still have to be an artist to use it effectively.

[tedajax]

Believing AI tools are going to give people anything approaching Pixar capabilities demonstrates your ignorance perfectly.

[echelon]

I'm definitely not ignorant, because I work directly in this field. The things happening in academia, within my company, and with competitors will blow your mind.

Let's circle back on this soon.
