OpenAI's latest image-generation update has taken social media by storm, as users are flooding X, Instagram, and Reddit with Studio Ghibli-style images
If you lꝏk at a monster and 1st thing comes to your brain’s disabled person , there’s some thing wrong with you
Let’s not take every thing miyazaki says at face value . Ffs he compared swiping gestures on ipads to masturbation . This tendency he seems to have with every new technology being The Worst Thing Ever , ⦅bogus|overly hyperbolic) comparisons|catastrophising (“end of times” in reference to desire to create genAI art technology⦆ , think the disability comparison definitely qualifies
You’re still missing the point Miyazaki is making. His point is that such a crude depiction of an organism with thoughts and feelings is an insult to actual living thinking beings. The animation might not be alive or sentient, but it still represents a life form that is sentient, and creating such animations that depict sentient beings as incapable as the animation might evoke undesirable feelings in somebody watching that animation, even if they know that it is merely a 2D digital animation composed of bits and pixels that does not have any psychological traits.
That isn’t really what he means though. Miyazaki knew this was AI generated and knows what it means. They explain the machine which they sought to create art like humans do ‘learned’ how to move and that ‘it doesn’t feel pain’ and called it ‘dancing’. Then they say it is creepy and could be used for a zombie game.
Miyazaki then states ‘whoever creates this stuff has no idea what pain is’.
That is the criticism he appears to be levelling. The demonstration of such horror without an understanding pain robs it of human connection.

I wonder if he would pass the Turing test. He seems like he’s just a Luddite (yes yes luddites were the good guys, I’m using the current meaning)
