But it is related. Because they keep using AI and it keeps turning into low quality shit. Toy Story took effort and imagination and skill to animate, and at the end, it looked incredible. When I was a kid and Toy Story came out, I wasn't looking at it and saying "how lazy these animators are to not draw this" I was saying "I've never seen anything like this before!". They took the tools they invented and played into its strengths. It made plasticy lifeless unreal looking humans, so they made the main characters toys. Toy Story is actually the perfect counter example to this AI bullshit, because it was obviously made with skill and love, and AI use keeps showing us it is a lazy shortcut to shitty work.

    you’re making good points, so please don’t see what I’m saying as needlessly confrontational. What I’m saying is that this happens to any game that uses it in any way whatsoever, so it can’t just be about quality, it moves into ideology.

    Understand that's what you're saying. Ai is not a tool in the same sense as 3d art compared to hand drawn animation. There is no control on output and there is no care, because nobody is doing anything, they're just taking an image spit out by a machine that outputs an amalgamation of others works. On top of ethical issues regarding stolen work and environmental destruction caused by ai. Asking others to turn off their brains and not think about what tool is being used to create these images is embarrassing

    That's sound logic, and I appreciate you clarifying your tone. My apologies if I reacted too strongly! However, I would ask if there is a case of AI hate against some media that does not have poor quality AI slop in it? Not including unreleased products. My position is that I am anti-AI for 2 reasons. It is soulless and low quality. The soulless thing, sure, is ideology. But I've yet to see an example of AI art use that didn't have some inhuman flaw.
