Given they put out an 'artist impression' video where the ride vehicle magically went through some supports I wouldn't be surprised if they used some AI in the design rather than paying someone with skills.

And all of the recent videos from the retail department on socials that use AI

How do you know its AI, the emblems are hand made at the Top.

The dead giveaway is that if you follow the snakes body, there’s a phantom “loop” of the body that isn’t attached to the head or tail. Would never have happened if an artist created the original design. The sculpted piece was made from an AI design

Nothing wrong with how it looks despite it being AI, if it was used to aid in the design then so be it

Its just lazy - not the worse use of AI I’ve ever seen but it’s really showing how low the standard is falling

Theme parks are an inherently creative industry, if we lose those talents there’s no going back

Not lazy helping to be more efficient and less time consuming. AI is a tool to make tasks easier

I don't disagree, but at the end of the day it is here to stay and will be used, so will just have to put up with it I suppose. Nothing going to stop them using it

You say put up with it though until parks are exclusively using this lazy, damaging, horrid way instead of employing creatives to work for them, this is the path this gen AI nonsense leads to

Well how do you propose we fight against AI being used.

I think it is the modern day equivalent of using clipart, fine for some small businesses but for larger businesses it is very cheap
