I have decided to drop out of the AI program at Amazon. I will not be making a Punky Duck series. Actions speak louder than words.
My intent was to showcase artists, both new and seasoned, both inside and outside the studios, driving this new tech.
My sincerest apology to those I upset. I promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for your patience with me. I will try harder.
If you need to partner with AI to get a greenlight on your project, it ain't worth it. I know it's super frustrating out there rn but nothing makes replacing your peers with automated garbo justified. Nothing. We gotta hold the line on this one or we're f*cked.
Jorge R. Gutierrez says animating with AI was like “having sex and then they hand you the baby” during his appearance at the AI on the Lot convention.
He currently has a project named ‘Punky Duck’ through Amazon MGM’s GenAI Creators’ Fund, an initiative aimed at giving creators access to professional-grade AI tools and funding for cinematic entertainment.
@Whataburger new location opening near me - what is this drab bullhonky? Where’s the trademark orange and white? Where’s the tented structure? Since when do you wanna look like every other boring fast food restaurant? You’ve changed, man.
@PrincessPoro@Whataburger So my rage should be directed at the Flower Mound Planning and Zoning committee…my apologies, @Whataburger . Turns out the only beef I have with you is the #1 with no pickles and extra mustard. 🧡🤍
