Fable Studios created an AI-generated episode of South Park... during a Hollywood strike over AI. - eviltoast

So, how much money do you think Matt and Trey are going to sue them for?

      Thanks! Clips were dull and weird. The first clip felt like “insert name here” material. The longer episode everyone just stares straight ahead and speaks in monotone. I have to wonder how much the material was “massaged” or edited to get the final result.

        I’m guessing there was a fair amount of prompting scene by scene. It’s very impressive technically but it definitely falls flat at the moment

          I’m not so sure. There were some bits where there was simply stage directions or general descriptions of things happening, like “(Mett Porker makes some racist jokes)”, with the characters just standing there staring instead of doing what was described. That looks bad, but suggests to me that very little human touch-up was done to the output. Those would have been obvious and easy for a human to fix if there was a human touch intervening any of this.

          I wouldn’t be surprised if the AI was provided with a paragraph or so of prompting telling it what sort of episode to generate, and then it just let fly and we got this.
