On the other site, Studio Ghibli-style AI output is going viral and allow me to just say it is profoundly depressing to see that stuff being used to promote OpenAI's latest product. Miyazaki famously called AI-produced art "an insult to life itself"—and this in turn is an insult to him.

I genuinely hate these AI “artists”.
bc absolutely nothing i've seen from AI looks remotely like ghibli
i don't know how to tell you this, but ghibli isn't synonymous with japanese made animation
the clothes aren't styled the way ghibli does
the "angry" face also isn't in style
They are the worst kind of dishonest swine to ever crawl out of the devil’s asshole.
As if it wasn't bad enough competing with all the social media folks who flocked to Canva, let alone the "my nephew has a great eye" crowd.
If we are just gone there will be less people to point the problems of the tech
I legit want horrible things to happen to these AI worshipping cunts.
The attention should be more focused on its downstream implications. https://bsky.app/profile/minimaxir.bsky.social/post/3llcczwodgs2f
it looks like bland anime
i find it incredibly insulting that anyone has the temerity to compare this crap to one of the most consistently artistic animation studios
maybe you missed the point
especially done to create a simulacrum mocking one of its most famous critics.
It's deeply disrespectful to the artist to use his work this way
Once you can mass produce Studio Ghibli style images, it won't elevate AI to the cultural status Ghibli holds now, but instead decrease the perceived value of the Ghibli aesthetic.
People dont care about the process, they care about the result.
Im so depressed
There is no beauty in us. Only greediness and selfishness. True monkeys.
Art is a dream of what we are not.
They're like the guy digging thru the giant pile of horseshit because there must be a pony in there somewhere.
God this AI “””debate””” (witch hunt) is so depressing. Like, what are you even challenging me on — that some people do partake in it? By arguing that it’s so fake they can’t partake in the first place? Absurd

I don't like GenAI (ChatGPT, Dall-E, etc) and based on his body of work I doubt Miyazaki is that hot on it either, but that's not what he was talking about when he said that and it sucks that the soundbite has been stripped of context so totally.
*not actually a thing I did
There's a profound sense of violation that comes from being burgled. This technology is yet another way to violate people.
This time when he comes out of retirement it is gonna be for revenge
It’s enlightening to see how fine the line between (what they think is) love and destructive hate is for these guys. If they can’t own it, control it, enslave it, they want to destroy it.
It’s all on the same axis with the faked porn and faked voices/images.
Personal opinion, "in the style of ..." sucks balls, it did before ML tools, it does even more now. I don't want tools that imitate people, I want AI that is inhuman, alien, associating where we don't associate.
unsurprisingly, the two places full of it are facebook and linkedin.
but sadly, it's free for the end users, so the braindead manager type is now more addicted to genAI than cocaine.
I mean he would hate AI gen art too for sure
Not the same as a AI-gen program scraping google images to steal art and combine it.
Dude grinds his animators into the dirt, I don't really see any value in what he believes "putting human emotion into it" is.
That's why, it's implied, Miyazaki fears all is lost at the end there
imo it’s the same principle. those programmers were playing god, making something grotesque from an algorithm.
miyazaki directs his games in the same way; with an idea that art must be dignified.
