Japanese media predicts that AI animation will develop rapidly this year and the cost will be only one-tenth of traditional hand-drawing

As the world's leading animation power, Japan's animation industry, one of its traditional national arts, may be undergoing drastic changes. The rapid development of AI technology has inevitably affected various industries, and the animation industry is no exception. In the future, it may be difficult to see pure hand-painted animation masterpieces represented by Master Hayao Miyazaki.

·Relying on the amazing generative training capabilities, AI-generated animation is no longer a fantasy. A completely AI-generated animation, "Yakumo and Setsu's Ghost Story Book", will be launched on the Kansai TV channel on YouTube tonight. Interested viewers can go and watch it for themselves.

Although many animation companies have made it clear that they are unwilling to give up tradition, and voice actors have expressed their determination to resist AI infringement, in fact, the cost of an animation generated by AI is only 1/10 of that of a traditional hand-drawn animation. From a business perspective, this huge advantage is hard not to attract the attention of capitalists.

Moreover, as the technology of AI animation matures, the quality of animation will never be inferior to traditional animation. In the future, the traditional works of Japanese animation masters such as Hayao Miyazaki and Kenji Kamiyama may be less and less seen.
