My upcoming animation Borrow from Tomorrow is a series of dystopian future scenarios. Naturally, it will all be made painstakingly with human hands. No AI assistance. AI would ruin the spirit of the endeavor. Regrettably, it will still be made using a computer, but I swear it will have an artisanal quality.
Look forward to it.
