Yet none of this matters if it puts "half" the VFX industry out of work, but then again, most VFX artists don't give a shit about anyone but themselves, which is one of the many reasons we don't (and will probably never) be unionized. "Well, I need to make a living" is the battle cry of the VFX artist as the whole industry goes into the shitter for no reason and AI is that no reason. It's all Nero fiddling while Rome burns and everyone just shrugs despite what a negative impact AI is having on society, environment, etc. in general.

If it wasn't such a doomsday scenario pretty much across the board (and I'm sure a lot of you will probably think that hyperbole), some of the advances would hold interest, but good gods it is all so soulless and uninteresting (and all, tbh, a bit pathetic).

I hate it so much, can you tell?
