I think that overestimates the capacity of AI, and underestimates improvements in CGI that have been happening continuously over the last several decades before we started calling all software AI. That’s been going on incrementally all the time.
Current big-budget feature-film level CGI involves rooms full of artists, coders, and directors - because that’s what’s needed to produce top-level visual effects. And that’s not going to change right away, BTW: AI isn’t going to make that level of people any time soon. But the number of coders and artists and directors for any given level of CGI has dropped precipitously. What might have taken that room full of people in 2000, like this scene in Deep Blue Sea, could be done today with very few people at all - even using the tools of a few years ago before everything was labeled AI:
AI’s just the next iteration of CGI - which itself displaced all the people whose job it was to hand draw animation and effects with people whose job it was to use computers to generate those images.
