What is everyone’s thoughts on this? I don’t know enough about unions or the animation industry alone to form an opinion, but I saw this and apparently it’s big news for the animation community.

Animators have generally been treated as one short step above bond-slaves, like most tradesman, since the systemic dissolution of union powers during the 20th century, because workers having rights instead of sucking corporate cock is Communism. I salute them, but also predict they'll get fucked.

Wow, that's great news for the South East Asians that just got a new job.

Most animators seem like they they need to learn to code, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised at all if deep fake AIs took the jobs of most animators in the coming decade.
You vastly overestimate the power and competence of AI and vastly underestimate the human desire for novelty and beauty.

If human desire for novelty and beauty is a thing why the fuck is Marvel comics still in business and why are there tv-shows like My 600lbs life?
1. Because a desire for the familiar also exists. But even they, they keep trying to remake these characters to be new- remember She-Thor?
2. If you object to the urge to stare at the burning trainwreck, you shouldn't be on this site. Lolcow forums are just trashy reality TV mixed with a spinster's knitting circle.

1. Yes, sadly I do.
2. I don't object to stare at the burning trainwreck, I love it and admit that openly.
What I did want to say is that you might overestimate the human desire for novelty and beauty. But that's just my opinion.
IMHO, humanity as a whole is just sentient cattle they want to be fed and most of them do not care for novelty and beauty, they want their daily dose of shlock, processed food and a beer and that's it.

Look at what inbetweeners do and tell me that's any different from what deep fakes already do. You only need competent humans to write the stories, direct, and create the key frames, most of the process is already left to the barely competent.

Because like Disney as a whole not everything they make is solely designed to appeal to Tumbler contrary to what culture warriors would have you believe?

Yeah, because I give a flying fuck about barely literate morons, erm sorry, The Fandom Menace, sorry I can barely contain myself, "culture warriors" like Quarterpounder. Yeah, because I give a shit about some dumbfuck from Wisconsin who pissed in his own basement. Or all the other dumbfucks like Geeks and Gamers and Nerdrotic or whatever they call themselves. These retards bring nothuing to the table and most of them should have a thread here, if they don't already have.
I wasn't talking about Disney as a whole, I know that most of their stuff isn't bad, except the latest Mulan movie which was utter shit, I was talking solely about Marvel comics.
Marvel comics (add DC into the mix if you want to) have seen a steady decline in story quality and also their drawn art over the last years. I you like Marvel comics, good for you, why not, but I really do think they are on their way out if they don't get better (same goes for DC).

Hulk and Thor were both absolutely assraped by terrible writing and they're some of the most recognizable Marvel heroes. Marvel in general has been terrible for awhile and it's reflected in the sales.
