Is the anime industry cooked? (piefed.zip)

After seeing how someone used Seedance 2.0 to improve a famously bad anime scene (check the post here), it got me thinking: if in the near future you can just feed a rough storyboard or even a CBR file to an AI and get a fully animated episode, what's the point of the traditional animation pipeline?

Either the industry adopts these tools en masse, or we'll have a situation where the "fan-made" AI version of a show drops online before the official one is even finished. And if studios do use AI, how will the final product be any different from the countless fan remasters flooding the web? Feels like the whole definition of "official" animation is about to get very blurry.

Given by how repulsed animators like Miyazaki was when AI was able to replicate Studio Ghibli's style, there may be some resistances in getting AI implemented into anime shows and movies. CGI already was barely accepted and you'll find watchers who just don't even like CGI being implemented.
