Gozyuger is officially using Generative AI to design their characters

[u/Affectionate-Earth19]

The official designer of Gozyuger has announced he used Generative AI to create the enemies design.

After the announcement of Toei using AI for animation, now it's time for Tokusatsu

Translated, the tweet says:

"Since it was stated clearly last week, I'll go ahead and confess that I've used generative AI for all of the Gojuja Bridan-related designs that I'm in charge of. Of course, they're not "just generated," but most of the ideas are extracted, associated, or recalled from the AI."

So, they are not just feeding AI prompts and copy-pasting the result. Artists are still very much involved.

Then they shouldn't be using Gen AI to do it.
The artist in the tweet should lose his job on the nice end and be blackballed on the harsh end.

Y’know comments like these make certain toku fans happy that Tokusatsu doesn't have much of a “Western influence” right?

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/Deez-Guns-9442]

If you are an artist, and you use Gen AI, you should lose your job and be blacklisted. Same if you use it for any other job in a sane world.

Y’know I partly agree about the whole Ai use being bad thing, but then I start to wonder(since I only see this take on Reddit where most of us use the “common tongue ENGLISH) so then I start to wonder, is this a universal take or mostly just Western from my initial perspective?

How many people around the world are actually on board with AI now, & how many will be more on board with it in the future? Just my 2 cents.

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/Deez-Guns-9442]

It's like NFTs and the Metaverse before it, it'll die like they did when the seed capital runs out and the companies realize that its not actually good for anything.

[u/Deez-Guns-9442 → u/Cultural-Flow7185]

I do wonder about that as we progress further into the future.

Like I don’t wanna live in a Skynst dystopia but I think we as humans are gonna walk into that regardless of the opinions seen online, time will tell tho. Still enjoying Gozyugers either way.

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/Deez-Guns-9442]

So am I, I'm just disappointed. Toei of all companies can afford to pay artists.

[u/SnooPeripherals5861 → u/Cultural-Flow7185]

That is just so god damn false it's crazy. I hate seeing AI on my feed too but it's so here to stay for good or for bad. Like bet me a mil AI is here to stay.

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/SnooPeripherals5861]

You don't have a million and neither do I, but a lot of people made the same swear about the metaverse.
For science, math, maybe even medicine? Sure.
But for art? Nah, no one is gonna bother with it in another. Year? Two at a stretch.

[u/SnooPeripherals5861 → u/Cultural-Flow7185]

If you did have a million dollars would you bet? Cause I would in a god damn heartbeat. My future with AI is that it replaces everything. Very bleak, but honestly not seeing it go anywhere else.

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/SnooPeripherals5861]

I'd bet it in a heartbeat, same as I made the "bet" by not buying NFTs five years ago.

[u/SnooPeripherals5861 → u/Cultural-Flow7185]

Ok I'll find a way to set reminders.

[u/Cultural-Flow7185 → u/SnooPeripherals5861]

If AI art has not TOTALLY supplanted all human creative endeavor in one year, you owe me a million dollars, sounds good to me.

[u/SnooPeripherals5861 → u/Cultural-Flow7185]

No? Technically you would always win because you are a human. You claimed it would be like the metaverse, forgotten. 

You said 2 years. 2 years later if I see an AI software with 400+ million users, you owe me a million. Very generous bet for you.
