AI Creativity – Genius or Gimmick?
7:59-9:50 Justine Bateman:
“I mean first I want to give people, help people have a little bit of a definition of what generative AI is—
think of it as like a blender and if you have a blender at home and you turn it on, what does it do? It depends on what I put into it, so it cannot function unless it’s fed things.
Then you turn on the blender and you give it a prompt, which is your little spoon, and you get a little spoonful—little Frankenstein spoonful—out of what you asked for.
So what is going into the blender? Every but a hundred years of film and television or many, many years of, you know, doctor’s reports or students’ essays or whatever it is.
In the film business, in particular, that’s what we call theft; it’s the biggest violation. And the term that continues to be used is “all we did.” I think the CTO of OpenAI—believe that’s her position; I forget her name—when she was asked in an interview recently what she had to say about the fact that they didn’t ask permission to take it in, she said, “Well, it was all publicly available.”
And I will say this: if you own a car—I know we’re in New York City, so it’s not going to be as applicable—but if I see a car in the street, it’s publicly available, but somehow it’s illegal for me to take it. That’s what we have the copyright office for, and I don’t know how well staffed they are to handle something like this, but this is the biggest copyright violation in the history of that office and the US government” -

- For developers: Any existing PRs and issues will be transferred to the new repository location
- For users: ComfyUI-Manager will continue to function exactly as before—no action needed
- For workflow authors: Resources that reference ComfyUI-Manager will continue to work without interruption

Bennett Waisbren – ChatGPT 4 video generation
1. Rankin/Bass – That nostalgic stop-motion look like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Cozy and janky.
2. Don Bluth – Lavish hand-drawn fantasy. Lush lighting, expressive eyes, dramatic weight.
3. Fleischer Studios – 1930s rubber-hose style, like Betty Boop and Popeye. Surreal, bouncy, jazz-age energy.
4. Pixar – Clean, subtle facial animation, warm lighting, and impeccable shot composition.
5. Toei Animation (Classic Era) – Foundation of mainstream anime. Big eyes, clean lines, iconic nostalgia.
6. Cow and Chicken / Cartoon Network Gross-Out – Elastic, grotesque, hyper-exaggerated. Ugly-cute characters, zoom-ins on feet and meat, lowbrow chaos.
7. Max Fleischer’s Superman – Retro-futurist noir from the ’40s, bold shadows and heroic lighting.
8. Sylvain Chomet – French surrealist like The Triplets of Belleville. Slender, elongated, moody weirdness.
