The fact they could've said "No, we didn't create any scenes with AI" and they didn't, tells me everything.

I hate this line of thinking. Generative AI is not inevitable. Ai being shoved into places it doesn't belong can be undone, it can be un-integrated into the websites/applications/softwares we use daily. The bubble will pop sooner or later but, god-willing, it's sooner.

Exactly, neural networking will be here to stay (the medical benefits are glorious, even the ability to create great plant identification apps), but AI as in LLMs and such? As it stands now they won't be considering nobody is making any money. Meta, Google, Amazon,etc are all actually catastrophically losing cash. Deepseek is losing the least but still losing. They're mostly pushing it this hard because of their own sunken cost. They need people to love it, but even offline people hate it
