    CGI is one of the places where AI has been used for years. People were happy enough using generative AI before chatbots why stop now? I think the de-aging stuff is a pretty cool storytelling tool and the greenscreen filters save a lot of time and add quality.

    Wonder how George will fuck it up will he use a movie generator?

      Are you seriously comparing using generative diffusion models to applying a chroma key in video editing?

        Are you not aware of the AI assisted greenscreen tools? No well they are helpful and make the job faster.

          Were these green screen AIs trained on the entirety of human knowledge (in many cases destructively)? Are they regurgitating original works verbatim? Do they need giant hyperscaler data centers to run? Are they used to justify firing people en masse? Do they steal and poison massive amounts of water from communities? Are they used to prop up an insane stock market? Are they used to create misinformation at a never-seen-before scale?

            You’ve got some of the most laughable strawmen for justifying blind hatred that I’ve ever seen! Bravo.

              So you agree, then, that comparing the two is like comparing apples to oranges?

                    I am referring to generative models trained to take an image and output a chromakey’d image with some minor hair and transparency improvements. The lines are kinda blurred between classified and generated here but it is “generative AI”.

                    I think we just all agree text-to-image/video is bad and not creative at all. I just have this strong feeling that these directors have access to real experts and tools so I give them the benefit of the doubt rather than fediverse members, by a huge fucking margin.
