Sylvain Chomet Denies Use of Generative AI in Christian Dior Short Film
Director Sylvain Chomet, known for 'Triplets of Belleville,' has addressed allegations that his recent short film, 'Christian Dior’s Night in Color,' utilized generative artificial intelligence. Despite viewer claims regarding visual glitches and anatomical errors such as a character with six fingers, Chomet and producer Aton Soumache maintain the project was created using traditional 2D animation techniques. The production team clarified that while an automated interpolation tool was employed for a very minor portion of the process, generative AI was not used. The controversy highlights growing scrutiny and skepticism within the animation industry regarding the authenticity of hand-drawn digital works in the age of AI.
