what are you guys thinking about ai for vfx

[hannes603]

just wondering how people here in the forum thinking about this topic. 

As a fx artist at my company i hear clients often asking for ai effects and cheaper timeframes. Currently we can use it in more and more but still rare cases. What are your experiences ?

Hey Hannes, my experience with it as been a mix, some people usually the one with less experience, want to copy basically the concept, idea, design one to one to with the generated image and people who really understand or have more knowledge in the whole process usually get ideas of the image but they do not want to copy it, if that make sense. Lately though more and more people is using, and with the ones that have less experience is tough to make them understand that is not as easy as they think, I have been in meetings with clients and trying to explain the whole thing is tiring. With that said these type of clients are few though, most of the people that I work with, clients and co worker get the picture. Now where all this is going, I do not think anybody cant really answer that yet.  We can def see some benefits but also negatives about this whole AI thingy.
