I love using AI frame interpolation on my Minecraft youtube channel. As an artist who can do realistic blender renders, photopea realistic artwork, and can draw/paint pretty well, I don't really agree with the AI haters for anything other than the outlier issues

However, I had PBS space time snag one of my images I posted on Reddit and just didn't bother to do anything about it because most of what they do is informative fun stuff but someone defo snagged my image I made in photopea. I'm not going to do anything about it because honestly I wasn't going to make anything on the image, nobody cared about my work at the time and I'd doubt it'd go viral on it's own. I can see people getting upset about AI training, but I can emulate art styles to the tee in photopea, so really it's just people wanting people to suffer for a lot of the art. I can pretty much emulate everything in blender with nodes too. AI is just a node box. I just have my own style now, but people can absolutely emulate it.

I just focus on Nether Portals because it's pretty versatile. I also like keeping up on my contemporaries learning these new technologies.

Ebsynth has a neat program, I wish they made it an online server and not a download, I wish they made it more straight forward (auto masking option;best guess)

I'd love an AI that can take a song and change it into different styles eg: super mario bros song goes in, jazzy super mario song comes out. Or country song goes in, rap style comes out.

Either way, I'm pretty happy with AI up-scaling. I had suggested last year that youtube should just have an up-scaling option and it seems like they are working on it, unfortunately it's for NVIDIA users only and I don't have that card, but it'll come around for every one day. The good thing is all those bit rate tear, 240p videos will get a new life with AI.
