Can someone enlighten me as to why we should care about using AI to animate 1970s erotic images to create "conversation between past risqué aesthetics and new technology … over 50 years" 🤨🤨🤨🤨 I’m sorry but we had A LOT of adult films in the 1970s. Use those. 🤨🤨 variety.com/2026/tv/mark...

I’m thinking about the concept of governing AI in animation and the role of community-policing. Here’s a thought experiment: if an animation project is done with embroidery (thus very sophisticated, very technical craft) but includes AI in its pipeline, would it get dismissed / criticized?
I don’t know why people act shocked that Charli XCX had France no 1 fetishist weirdo Vincent Cassel in her Camera video clip as if she didn’t just make an album honoring three white men as the pinnacles of fashion, music and film lol
By the way, I gave a talk during the Animafest Zagreb last month!! 🇭🇷 🎥

Animation been disproportionately impacted by AI is the least surprising thing for anyone actually paying attention and engaging with the image-based ecosystem of genAI… People spent years talking to me about deepfake and I kept answering that very clearly, illustrated media were much more at risk.
Animation Magazine@animag.bsky.social · 2mo agoThree AI animated series are heading to Prime Video streaming via Amazon MGM/AWS-backed GenAI Creators' Fund: 'Cupcake & Friends;' 'Love, Diana Music Hunters;' and 'Punky Duck' from Jorge Gutierrez.
