However, not everyone is supportive of AI-generated art, especially when it comes to replacing the work of skilled human animators. Hayao Miyazaki, the legendary co-founder of

Studio Ghibli

, is particularly known for his firm opposition to artificial art.

Miyazaki’s Strong Opposition to AI in Animation
As AI-generated art gains popularity, the perspective of artists like Hayao Miyazaki becomes important. The co-founder of Studio Ghibli, known for creating some of the most iconic animated films, has openly expressed his disapproval of AI in the animation world. In a 2016 documentary, NHK Special: Hayao Miyazaki — The One Who Never Ends, he voiced his strong opposition to technology replacing human creativity in art.

In the clip, Miyazaki is seen reacting strongly to students who suggested using machines for animation. He expresses his disgust, saying, “If you really want to make creepy stuff, you can go ahead and do it. I would never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel this is an insult to life itself.” He also adds, “I feel like we are nearing the end of our times. We humans are losing faith in ourselves.”
The Future of AI and Traditional Animation
As AI keeps advancing, the potential to blend traditional animation with modern technology is endless. Could more Bollywood films be reimagined in Ghibli style? It's definitely a possibility, and fans are excited about it. The fun doesn't have to end with Bollywood—there's no telling which other movie universes might get a Ghibli-style transformation next!
