VFX artist of the Ferto MV admits to using AI for the video game animations on TikTok, because of course they did. www.tiktok.com/@santierrez/... It's a shame, because the concept is really cool, but if you don't have the resources to do it, don't do it instead of shitting all over artists.

SanTierrez on TikTok:
Why is it considered so bad? Do you actually understand how AI works, or what it takes to integrate it consistently into a high-end production pipeline? Good luck to anyone trying to deliver something close to this on a 5 day deadline without the workflows I used which, yes obv have AI.
