lmao… the TED talk is hilarious. Midway through, he starts explaining how Jurassic Park did vfx, basically showing how absolutely beastly and talented they were overcoming challenges in practical effects at that scale; then goes on to show this slopshit garbage.
It’s really sad that it took the “artist” 2 whole weeks to make this.

Yeah, that was weird to watch. Not sure if the speaker realizes how bad this new tech still looks.
And in the end he said that it is very important to use these AI models “with the full permission of the talent” and that they “had full access and the rights to the training data”. He obviously just considers Harrison Ford in this moment, but does he realize what that would mean regarding the AI models and their training data they use? And was the presented short film also created with full permission of all artists contributing to the training data? Was this just a blatant lie to make it sound like they work responsibly with AI?
