Kind of a shit article that points to another article I'd rather it be linked in this post instead.
The article's use of the term "AI" to me is kind of a blanket term for machine learning/deep learning. While I'm pretty skeptical (and so should you be) of it's recent use in generative content, advertisements, and theme parks, as a person who takes a mild interest in 3D animation and deep learning, I want to be the devil's advocate here and just point out some amazing and legitimate uses of deep learning like motion capture and 3D object creation that could be applied to their workflow. Disney actually publishes some interesting papers like face re-aging quite frequently on their research studio website. I just hope that people don't hear the term "AI" or "deep learning" and immediately think of generative AI and its controversies and write them all off as evil.
