Self-Care Corvid bringing you the daily Public Service Announcement:
Deutschlandfunk's program "Corso - Kunst und Pop" interviewed me two weeks ago, in German, on the current trend of AI-generated memes in Studio Ghibli's visual style
In a nutshell, I said that neither AI-generated fake Studio Ghibli images are new (they could be created, for example, with third-party Stable Diffusion LoRAs for about two years), nor the use of algorithms and generative AI in animation (for example, for drawing backgrounds and in-between frames) - but that we're simply seeing the convergence of trolling, meme culture and manipulated political propaganda images [that already existed in early 20th century fascism and Stalinism] where the main function of AI image generators is to simplify, deskill and industrially accelerate meme generation.
