It's not generated anon, they have that exact image in vector form. Instead it looks like some lazy ass zoomzoom intern retard found a 40 px x 40 px version of it online and decided to do the ebin AI upscale with waifu2x or whatever, slap it on the company page, and call it a day.
>>

No, not a NEW low. They did this exact same thing when they released that album with FIM background music that they used AI to remove the voices from... when they could've just asked Ingram for the originals (he posted that he has them and they didn't contact him at all). Hasbro is a company run by imbeciles.

Peppa was owned by Entertainment One, which Hasbro bought back in 2019. They kept the cash pig when they sold Entertainment One to Lionsgate back in 2023.

Why do you have to ask? If companies can replace the need for employees they will, maximum profits for the execs. Ignore that people wont have any money once jobs are erased the end goal is for their to be only rich people after all

The most laughable part to me is that there are still people who have faith in Hasbro.

Welcome to AI. You will be eating slop for years.
>>
I don't know why you faggots feat AI so much. All entertainment sucks ass nkwadays. We can finally make our own movies better than Hollywood. Our own music better than musicians. Better animations than what Hasbro could sver make. Sorry you're out of a job now fags, but you lost a long time ago.

The conversation is about Hasbro, not about "Us". CGI slop is already bad enough, if Hasbro starts to use AI, it would be the end of entertainment.
If it's hard to understand, let's compare GenAI to MTL. Yes, when there are no subs, you can resort of MTL as a last resort. But when official publisher sells MTL-translated crap, that's another conversation entirely.
>>
I think only hobbyists should use AI. And even then the majority of people won't be able to make anything decent with it. AI is mainly good for memes and porn.
>>
>>43409762
Can you link it?
>>
>>43409941
I'm not even sure if it actually aired or if it didn't leave the planning and fund gathering stage. Hopefully some oldfag that knows can pipe up about it.

>>

Are you even trying?
>>
>>43409997
Nobody tries anymore. Why do you think every thing sucks nowadays? Artists have exposed themselves as frauds who are incapable of telling good stories or making anything of worth. That's why AI is a godsend. We have the power to create without restrictions and without a budget and we can reinvent the wheel and save entertainment. I know its hard for you to accept, but the truth always does hurt.

This was called the Brony Thank You Project and it did air several times on The Hub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gN-FM-j8FA0
These were the times it aired: https://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/10/brony-thank-you-ad-schedule-announced.html

Later it became the Brony Thank You Fund and did some other charity projects. It dissolved just two years ago: https://www.equestriadaily.com/2024/10/brony-thank-you-fund-release-our-work.html
The remaining funds went towards the Derpy Hooves Scholarship in Character Animation at CalArts which has existed since 2015. That means it's still possible to get this scholarship over the next few years.

So, there's the whole thing about them just lazily using AI. However, even as an AIbro who likes lazily using AI, all I can fucking do is critique how bad the gens are. Did they use the original version of Stable Diffusion or some shit? We've had good AI mares for ages now and popular beloved characters like Optimus Prime and G.I Joe are going to be insanely easy for a good modern image model to just shit out in OK quality. What the fuck man, kek. This is really funny.

Gen Xers were the last generation with great talent for art, and most of them are at least in the 50's. Millennials got way too pampered to understand how to portray the realities of their lives in an interesting way.
And zoomers, while some have shown potential and to be more in touch with some of the things that made Gen-X artists as great as they are, never got to properly train their creativity due to a mix of constant technology and poor parenting.
Gen alpha seems to be following on the millennial's footsteps with how glued to phones and screens they are, so I guess it's up to zoomer parents to show that they are not a complete failure and see if the Bethesda gen will have something of value to offer.

I don’t live in the states and I don’t feel like writing a cover letter along with rewriting my fucking resume for something that has a 99% chance of being binned.
Online job boards are fucking awful, Indeed before they nuked their stats had only 4/1000 people getting a response back, and that response was only just a reply back, not a booked interview.
And apparently hiring culture has shifted away from in-person applications too, to the point that you walk in with a resume to the receptionist and they stare at you like you’re some alien, try to cut your conversation short when you ask where the manager is, and then bin your resume when you hand it to them.
Okay enough venting, my point is that Hasbro won’t hire any anons, all the real talent’s been fractured off into closed off filter bubbles.
>>
>>43415639
So I'm NOT crazy for feeling like half of us Zoomers are actually coming to understand how to live a real, eventful life with human connection?
(The other half sadly being hand-in-hand with Gen Alpha in just taking the worst Millennial traits and amplifying them.)
