My wife found an old cooler left outside for free. I tried to restore it!
Itโ€™s not perfect but itโ€™s better than tossing it out.

Iโ€™ll try to guess!

I remember watching the previs for this sequence before working on the film. It blew us all away. Excellent work!

Yes itโ€™s ugly, but Iโ€™ve also been reading that a lot of normal vfx people worked on it. Very little ai

Sorry to be such an Andor Guy lately but this is how it is.

Letโ€™s just cram as much information into our heads without any emotional context. Totally what I want out of entertainment & art

On how A.I. can transform media consumption:
Reading the A.I. summary โ€” I think it can be useful. I think it has a powerfully inoculating effect. Like, I think long-form, lots-of-episodes TV is a waste of time. But itโ€™s very tempting, right? You watch an episode and youโ€™re like, โ€œOh, geez, I really want to know what happens here.โ€
And so I discovered a couple of years ago, obviously, that the solution is you immediately go to Wikipedia and read the entire summary of the season, and then youโ€™re cured of the desire to watch any more episodes. So there is a therapeutic benefit to A.I. summaries.
