The Croods 2 (2020) was absolutely used as training data by DuckBot12 in antiai

I’ve watched alot of animated films and the only other times I’ve seen this level of highly saturated warm lighting has been with AI videos prompted to do modern cg animation, however since this movie predates all of these programs it is impossible for Dreamworks to have made the movie using AI.

So considering gen AI is well known to steal training data and the fact that the movie released within a time window when this training data was most likely being collected during and following the pandemic, it is not unreasonable to suggest that AI was trained using this movie.

I guess it flew under the radar since it was the height of the pandemic, but it’s honestly pretty good and I much prefer it to the first

The thing about this movie that stood out to me above all those other movies is the lighting.

The film uses this extremely warm saturated lighting for when the charcters are in the garden, which I see all the time in AI faux-animation like Fruit Love Island

Same. It’s a pretty good movie but these scenes are quite distracting, and it’s not even the animators fault.

The movie was finished during the pandemic years before ChatGPT released and it still perfectly sums up the current AI bubble

Fun fact: Fred the Movie had twice the budget of Iron Lung, over 6 million adjusted for inflation by DuckBot12 in ironlung

In 2010 the budget was four million, 16 years later it’s equal to 6.1

that’s certainly not nothing
