It acknowledges AI's gains in creative efficiency while holding that over-reliance risks alienating and homogenising artistic work, and calls for a balance in which AI enhances rather than replaces the artist's unique expression. The discussion is about art creation in general rather than animation specifically.}, keywords = {critical-theory, philosophy-of-technology, authorship, generative-ai, aesthetics}, note = {AI \& Animation Education Knowledge Base} }
