Just the first two shots alone are full of horrible, stilted and morphing animation, no consistency between shots, no particular art style at all.
This is not a creative work or art in any form I recognise.
A lot of AI content is better than human slop.
Gossip Goblin is fantastic.
Some people are making absolute banger content with AI. It's all in who's at the helm and what their storytelling capabilities and taste/aesthetics are.
Personally, all the Harry Potter AI shorts recently have been rather amusing, although they also vary significantly in detail and wit.
In some instances, it's even engineered to be broadly appealing. See Disney and Marvel.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have niche-specific creators who appeal to specific genre fans and can package their own tone and taste. That's actually really cool.
It's kind of like what happened to music. Electronic music, the DAW, and home recording opened the avenue for indie artists and all of the various genres.
Whether it's better is personal preference. And many find it so bad/soulless it makes anything around it impossible to enjoy.
Feels like going from artisanal sourdough bread to factory-made wonderbread. Sure it's "cleaner" looking... but that doesn't make it immediately better.
No, even one of the human worst human slop is still more enjoyable than whatever polished AI slop. In China the Niu Lai Film is way more successful than many AI slop.
Niu Lai is maybe more like Outsider music. The movie equivalent of "My Pal Foot Foot" by The Shaggs. They tried their best without knowing what they were doing, and ended up influencing artists like Frank Zappa & Brian Eno:
I haven't watched content for a long long time before AI slop started appearing, because the topics and the stories were boring and repackaged thirty times and ultimately very safe (need to be profitable).
AI has enabled small creators with new ideas and people with nothing but love of storytelling to be competitive with corporate slop.
Yes most of it's bad, but some of it is very innovative. No Hollywood slop has been innovative for a long time.
No, this is not only my opinion. Like i said, that human slop movie is way more successful than many polished AI movie in China.
