    Knowing the show, they definitely hired someone to replicate the feeling of looking at ai art instead of actually using ai

    That's honestly what I suspected at first. It has that sort of AI sheen to it, but there are a few things that make me believe that actual people worked on it as well -- even if they simply did some paintovers/photoshopping.

    It's too precise with It's errors, having multiple swords, extra fingers, and the 36 pack to be done by AI

    Multiple swords looks normal, that's a way samurai would wear their katana and wakizashi (known as daisho) when they don't need to be ready to draw, like in a civil meeting

    Can confirm, my mother was a large part Japanese and a mixed martial arts practitioner, she would wear her swords like that for fashion when I was little.

    (i have those swords now but keep them hidden so my white ass doesn't look like a weeb)

    What do you mean? The finger count seems right, multiple swords isn't necessarily an error, and the 36 pack is part of the joke about how ridiculously handsome he is.

    Theres a second scene later where you see the image again, only this time the image is edited to have like 9 limbs, multiple irises in one eye, two sets of mouths, etc. It becomes comically obvious that Sagi is AI gen (the image itself isnt actually ai gen, just made specifically to look ai gen for the sake of the joke)

    Kind of conflicted with my ownership of Hulu right now. On one hand Disney owns Hulu and they have been promoting generative Ai, specifically on Disney plus, however the actual shows on Hulu don't seem to be using generative Ai. I don't know what to do it seems Ai is invading more and more entertainment outlets.

    What episode is this from? I'm curious how the dutch dub translates it

    parent root
    5 points Oscar12s

    "The Grades". It's the one where Gumball goes back to kindergarten because he apparently failed a test by one mark years ago. Miss Simian helps him cheat through a test in the end.

    I know in the LATAM Spanish dub which I grew up with, Mr. Brown says "No soy un peludo, solo quería saber como me vería con una cola", which means the same in English, but "furry" is translated as "peludo", meaning "hairy".

    I can't blame them, I've never seen a furry in LATAM, and the episode is old, so it probably didn't have a word here yet. Aside from using "furry" as a loanword or "peludo", I think the word we use is "furro".

    Am I crazy optimistic or does this actually look not ai? It resembles a lot of furry artist's artstyles, kinda like Chunie(but like, not exactly). Especially those popular hypersaturated semi-realistic furry pfps I remember seeing a lot of.

    Just, extremely exaggerated.

    If would be completely in character for this show to get an artist to draw as close as possible to the AI style without actually using it, if you only removed the hands and mouth I wouldn’t have been shocked at all to see this as someone profile pic back in like 2016

    It's human-made, but it resembling those styles doesn't really indicate if it's AI or not as one of the selling points of generative models is that they can mimic art styles if given enough to train off of.

    The word you're looking for is "revival". If it's a reboot, it would have a completely different vibe and maybe even look from the original. Also, it would have to start over from the beginning and reintroduce the characters.
