this is so so embarrassing I can't believe they showed this in public as if it's a good example of what generative AI can do www.404media.co/star-wars-sh...

I've never been much of a Star Wars guy but my point of concession always was it had some of the best alien and creature designs ever. Hands down. Can't wait for unique icons like the Rancor and Hutts to be replaced in the future with... Zebra Apes and... Red Panda Sloths with rocks in their fur...

The problem with that is that there's a finite number of hand bones.

Prometheus type situation where evry day a vulture with a lead pipe flies by and whacks you but your bones mend thru the night.

*This* is what will kill Star Wars for me.

you work at ILM! ralph macquarrie and joe johnston worked on star wars with just their brains and their hands and created some of the most beloved/fucked up creatures you've ever seen! and you're getting up on stage to show a fucking possum owl? made by computer? get in the bin you ghouls

its beyond embarrassing, it's an insult to...everyone. everyone who ever worked on star wars as an artist, and everyone who can look at this and see that one of these was painted by a human artist, while the other was made by a lake-burning copyright shredder that would have laid macquarrie off

This slop being revealed so close to the recent release of season 2 of the Light & Magic documentary that celebrates artists and creative problem solving is such whiplash

Love how they had to put that stupid scanner overlay on it to make it ar least somewhat starwars-ish because otherwise it is just a striped chimpanzee.

Ralph McQuarrie, Hayao Miyazaki and Akira Toriyama were such big parts of my childhood. I could never imagine distilling such a major part of the creative process to AI.

Do wonder what the folk at the creature dept are thinking about this

everything I've heard from peers who've worked at ILM leads me to believe they are mostly all into this shit.

Circling back to the lead pipe.

They know they’ll eventually be surplus to requirements though, surely?

After watching the whole TED talk I think they've really deluded themselves into thinking they wont become expendable. The way he specifically brings up how Phil Tippett isnt extinct as if there arent barely any stop motion houses left.

ILM I guess: “Ai is so powerful, what if ape with stripes?”

jkcrosbyfun.bsky.social•6 days ago

God I watched the video version of these things - and I get physically ill watching anything ai - and I’m pretty sure the music might be as well. It’s disgusting
