Take these two examples: Escape from Berlin and Mnemosyne 2039 . I had a conversation with the author, from artist to artist. The character Sgt Elle Strayden was modelled in Blender, using ducth model Doutzen Kroes as inspiration. The impressive choreography was planned and animated in Metahuman and later the result was passed through Kling 3.0 y Seedance 2.0 AI for image enhancement. So technically it is a great work of human made animation. But people think that anything passed through AI is AI slop (low effort) made with a single prompt, nopt part of a long workflow involving human effort. AI is still not so great for some things alone, but in the hands of a skilled artist it can do wonders. When I see this workflow I see no difference between this and composing music using OpenMPT (a software to make tracked music) 25 years ago. I gathered some realistic samples of orchestral instruments and composed a song full of counterpoint, where you could not follow all the melodies that were being played at once by different instruments. The result was very impressive. It sounded like a real orchestra, but it was me doing all the effort of composing at home. Hollywood has decided that Oscars will not award any movie using AI. To me it looks like people see AI slop as binary: “If AI was used it is slop”. The concept of AI slop is low effort and unfortunately we have plenty of examples. But how about works that have an intense use of human effort and AI is used for finishing? I have done arts and I think AI helps to clean my customer base. Not willing to pay what the art is worth? Then go and use AI. That way those customers willing to pay will remain with me, and those who will attempt to deceive me will leave. However, I also consider that a worthy piece of art can be enhanced using AI. It is like using Photoshop to paint a hand made drawing. You still do a lot of work as human artist. You have the word on this. What do you think? submitted by /u/JoseLunaArts
