That doesn’t make any sense. Why would a studio hire a 3rd party when they can do it all in house?

Can you also put it on TV and get the revenue for it yourself?

More likely scenario based on this justification would be Google using AI to create more YT content that they own so they don’t have to deal with creators as much.

Using AI that was taught how to do it by using other peoples content. Since no new actual content is being created and a program is basically just rehashing their stuff. This should be plagiarism. Going to be a very interesting few years.

It's going to saturate the market with tons of videos of AI produced animations that will make finding actual quality stuff difficult and breaking through as an emerging artist nearly impossible. Video game streaming is a prime example of this.

Why would providers pay for that instead of doing it themselves? The AI would already be scouring the internet to see what it should make. If anything gains traction it would just make its own.

And why do you think the AI will be cheap enough that any random person can use it?

If it's available for "free" it's because they need people to train it.

I'm starting to think you have no idea what you're talking about

Sure they can! It's possible it would make animation more accessible. That does not mean it would allow more people to earn a living creating animated content, or earn more money. More content simply devalues the content. Also, how many people (artists, animators) can afford to spend the time to develop a fully finished product without any pre-arranged distribution or guaranteed value?

I can see where you're going with this. The argument most people have is that AI will reduce the need for humans but they fail to consider the possibility that instead it might instead simply increase the output of humans.

So far, in my line of work as a Web programmer, AI already plays a role in allowing me to create more code in less time. In practice this makes me feel more productive rather than redundant.

When applied to animation, I imagine this will allow both the amateur to produce more (the memes will get better) and the production capacity of professionals will increase (more TV, movies, etc). Extrapolating that, I fear for the writing room because they're going to have one hell of a job making sure the machine produces anything more valuable than complete nonsense :p
