Job-Killing AI: Dreamworks’ Katzenberg Says Artificial Intelligence Will Replace 90% Of the Human Artists Needed to Make an Animation Movie
Is AI turning a generation of tech-addicted visual artists into Luddites?
On the one hand, long gone are the days where animators would be working ink-on-paper to produce frame after frame on an animation movie.
The digital revolution has long-impacted the making of animation. However, we may be about to see the digital transformation of this art form accelerate by a factor of 10 – according to one of the most qualified voices in the industry.
DreamWorks founder Jeffrey Katzenberg has predicted that generative artificial intelligence ‘will cut the cost of animated films by 90 percent’, that means: the ‘human cost’.
The new technology is set disrupt the media and entertainment sector like no other.
