That’s amusing, isn’t it? The AI script kiddies are getting better by leaps and bounds. They’re making short glosses on their favorite dreck right now. It’s only a matter of time before they can produce the whole thing, instead of just coming attractions.

Of course animation entertainment is about a century old at this point. It’s easy to forget just how popular Disney’s animated features were back in the 1950s, for example. Disney animated movies were the highest grossing films in 1950, 1953, and 1955. Their live action stuff, which were as phantasmagorical as the cartoons, came in first, second, or third a few times, too.

The Jetsons was just a futuristic version of the Flintstones. Cartoons like that are beloved by people who watched them as re-runs in their childhood, but if you look at them again without your nostalgia glasses on, they’re pretty weak sauce. Cartoons suffered badly from the shift to assembly line work from the original artist’s easel quality.

So where will the AI revolution end up? Pretty soon, people with next to no computer skills and precious little artistic ability and writers with an inability to spell the word “lose” are going to be able to make a whole movie on their desktop computer. And they probably will. And it will be just like this video. A derivative of a derivative of a derivative. But then again, have you seen the latest Spiderman movie? No, not that one. The other one. No, the other, other one. No, not that one either. You’re thinking of the other, other, other Batman movie…
