    It is hard to ignore the similarities between the commotion around the use of AI in making art, to that of using CGI in the early 90s, 00s, and even now. Of course, the former is more vehement.

    Also,

    soulless and creepy dystopian

    It is an ad. That too by a mega corporation known for their unethical practices, what did you expect?

    In case, the Piped link does not work

    My weird theory:

    The reason we are so freaked out by AI imagery, is because that’s what things look like in our dreams, and we’re not supposed to see- consciously, what we create subconsciously.

    Just when you thought marketing people were already the lowest scum among legal professions they sink even further.

    lol … this will be our future … we will exist in a dystopian reality of climate catastrophes and a warming planet, creeping fascism, endless war … while we will be steadily fed a diet of AI generated sentimental slop from our a recent past that no longer exists.

    Watching it, even if I didn’t know ahead of time it was AI, the stuff with Santa giving the guy the Coke looked so unnatural that I would have to assume it was, at the very least, badly-done CG.

      It is 5 second scenes with jump cuts. If you pause any particular scene the AI shows itself really fast. (The fast jumps are a good cover though)

        5 seconds would be fucking long for AI, those scenes are merely 1.5 sec at best. Coca Cola should really have known better to not use AI for such an iconic Ad. I’d really love to know how much money they burned for their Real Magic AI.

        Yeah the AI videos still really feel mostly like a parralax effect with a background and foreground image. Some of the cutting edge can do more, but I’ve gotten the feeling it’s a lot less consistent/stable.

        The road in town shot is fucked if you look at it for like longer than a second. The road is literally like fractured. Maybe it was for American infrastructure realism.

        The ad is from the future, where AI becomes advanced enough to make it

        It was sent back in time to warn us about AI, but the message probably was missed

    I hate the ad but I hate the website with the 100 ads even more OMG it took me 5 minutes to finally be able to click on youtube fast enough before getting ported to the top screen without being able to move.
