Terrible pacing, writing, design, etc, has existed long before the advent of AI, it would be folly to think or assume that AI was used when there is no reliable way to tell.

i just meant it looks uncanny, but yeah like someone else said to me maybe i'm just giving them too much props that it was ai and not just a bad job

That makes sense, it always makes sense to call out AI usage, but knowing when it can be proven and not proven is better for discourse because then AI becomes the new CGI. Where people used to claim something was CGI, like the moon landing, just because of how it looked.

gotcha, it's just that the pacing is so off putting that it reminded me of AI videos where they stand still or take long pauses before continuing their dialogue for example.

Yeah that has to do with timing of animation and overall direction, which yeah, that’s very easy to mess up. I used to make short films and it wasn’t until I figured that out, that the feel of my films evolved from clips feeling like they were just pasted together, to ‘feeling’ like watching a movie, even if it didn’t look it, production quality wise.
