AI has caused significant changes in the film and animation industry, but what does that mean for my future and the future of the industry as a whole? Right now, many companies are laying off employees in favor of using AI. However, some are beginning to realize that AI can be more expensive than expected. The costs of AI tools, prompt limits, and the need for constant revisions can sometimes outweigh the savings from reducing staff. In addition, AI is still developing, and there is a great deal of uncertainty about how it works and how reliable it can be.
Many people assume AI can replace creative professionals, but it still has limitations. It often requires multiple prompts and revisions to produce usable results, and it cannot consistently match the originality, storytelling, and emotional depth that human artists bring to their work. Because of this, I believe AI still has a long way to go before it can truly replace the animation and film industry. I am confident there will always be a need for human creativity, imagination, and artistic vision.
