I say LLMs instead of "AI" in the quote because that's marketing shit and it's a lie and I reject it.

Of course King Bazinga is so treatbrained that he wants the complete absence of artists from what he thinks is art because they might wokescold him and make him uncomfortable while inhaling infinite slop.

I suppose for sheer absurd/surreal/horror novelty, we might get something like this, though.

    The anime industry is already in a creative rut when it comes to the increasingly specific and narrow demands of the big spenders that buy the merch that want even more "ego insert bland asshole wakes up in fanservice world and conquers it like a video game with extra sexy sex" pandering that will likely only get more specific and narrow in its concentrated pandering, a bit like fruit being replaced by sugar until that is then phased out in favor of high fructose corn syrup.

    I can only imagine the hedonic treadmill sprints that LLM-driven infinite hogslop will provide for increasingly alienated consumers. desolate

      My favorite animes of last season were: 1) a salarywoman whose cat is a six foot tall not very anthropomorphic asexual house husband, and 2) A mystery story where Japanese mythology creatures meet Sherlock Holmes and the league of extraordinary gentlemen.

        There is still good stuff out there, yes.

        My concern is about the gradually tightening line-must-go-up capitalistic choke-hold on more and more of the industry's primary resource channels, the ones that get increasingly narrow and focused otaku/weeb pandering mandates year by year because those are the people buying the merch.
