| Do you agree with companies using AI to create an original work, including a new story and characters, based on a deceased author's past works as a way of continuing their legacy? So far I only heard of companies using AI to create a new work based on Tezuka's. How do you feel about this? If popular manga authors such as Eiichiro Oda (One Piece) and Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto) passes away, would you want anime companies to use AI to create new series based on their existing work? Or do you think it's disrespectful to the original authors? Once the current season of Dragon Ball ends, would you want to see a new season made using AI? |

| @Phosphophyllita AI anime based on Tezuka is real. There was also a short documentary from NHK. welcome to the dystopian future. |

| Let authors and their works rest. Don't indulge in this digital necromancy to tarnish their legacy. |
| fanfics are a thing for this exact reason, AI is useless. We already have AoT no Requiem which is a very good fanfic, no way AI can create a work of art |

| If someone tried to grift off my work posthumously with a soulless AI continuation cash grab, I'd haunt them from beyond the grave and I bet many creatives would agree on this. |
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.  |
| If it manages to do something good, but I doubt that. |
 |
| My take on AI has been fairly balanced but I think that's going too far. AI is great at mimicking Bouguereau, probably better than any other artist but I'd still find it disrespectful if someone made commercialized AI generated works and claimed that it "continued his legacy". Just making the works is fine imo. It's the other stuff I have issues with. |

If you want to honour an author's legacy, use your own damn imagination to create new stories for those characters! Other than "continuing a legacy", this is pure and utter disrespect to the OG creators!! |
| What debating with DigiCat is like according to APolygons2 That's why I thought a discussion would be pointless. It doesn't feel like a debate. It feels like I'm playing chess and somehow lose to an uno reverse card after loosing all my monopoly money lol |
| Corporations are getting greedier every single day i see. |
 |
| I may be more or less a pro-AI stan, but hell nah. Let it be a tool for streamlining things like recommendations, translation, upscaling, and other things, but even I have my limits with what's okay. |
Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| No don't disrespect the dead by tarnishing their work. They would cry in their grave seeing the work they so nurtured and worked on with care getting handled by soulless metal thingies pushing out algorithmized chapters. |
 -Tohka is better than Kurumi. You can't change my mind. |
| Only under very strict circumstances would I be inclined to think it might be ok. 1. It would require official permission being given by the copyright holder (presumably the Author's estate/family). 1. It would have to be a continuation of an ongoing series at the time of the author's death. 2. It would only be to reach an acceptable 1-volume conclusion to the unfinished story, not drag it out for several volumes. 3. A majority (60%+) of the sales income would go to the Author's estate/family (copyright holder). 4. It should be made clear to the public that it is something AI generated based off the existing work, and not officially considered canon. Beyond this, and I'd say NO, as it'd likely be someone's attempt to turn a potentially huge profit from someone else's work. |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| imitation is the highest form of flattery so why not but its better be a good darn imitation though |
| Two words; Fuck no. I don't care how much people want a continuation of a story/series, but that abso-fucking-lutely should not be done. I'm sorry, but I'd personally rather that story end with the creator than it being completely bastardized like that, with ZERO human emotion behind it. Ideally, the only ones who should continue something are people who were close to and/or were very knowledgeable about the original creators writing style. NO ONE should ever be ok with this. Period. This is so many levels higher of fucked up than it just being some executive forcing changes. That's not "continuing their legacy", that's giving it a huge middle finger while taking a massive corporate dump on it. |

| It's a big fat "it depends" for me. If the author gave general consent to his/her intellectual property being posthumously used by other people, then I have no problem with it. Otherwise it's in bad taste IMO. |
| I don't even like it when other humans try to continue a creator's work, so why would I want a machine built by other humans to do it? |
| It is disrespectful enough to use AI to imitate works of living authors. But doing it for works of dead authors who can no longer call you out on your shit is just vile. |
| I would only support it if the author itself made the AI, or was at least heavily involved in creating it and giving it personality. |
| Have you listened to the latest Beatles' Now and Then? What a shitty piece of music. And does it resemble The Beatles? No |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
 That honestly sounds like the start of Terminator age, which is kinda scary. also story writing and art designing still needs real human to be good, if they want to use AI I hope they use it just to help a little bit and not doing like 80% of the works. |

| Of course it's fine if the creator themselves had a chance to say to do that after they die but when you don't get to ask it's more complicated but I doubt it would be quality work it's just a more grifter version of a reboot. |
| I must say, thats a truly repellent idea |
 |
| Some suggestions that may lead to better results: - Frankeinsteining the author's brain. - Getting 1000 monkeys to draw random stuff for 1000 years and then choosing the best. - Finding who the author reincarnated as. - Waiting until the Cycles of Time are fulfilled and it all begins again. |
 |
| I'm sure it would work great for some authors. Would anyone really notice if Detective Conan were AI generated? |
| Just leave the authors alone, Their work is their work. Corporatizing it in the laziest way possible is completely disrespectful |

| @DreamingBeats Better anime gets made by living people such as Makoto Tezuka. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| I'm fond of the Terry Pratchet philosophy of addressing unfinished works post-mortem: assemble the remnants and destroy them, preventing further use or publication. It seems the most secure method of safeguarding your work from defilement after your untimely passing. |
| so that studios can milk the content even after the author is dead? |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Having their editors continue it as long as they consent to it before they pass is one thing, but letting a computer shit out whatever it thinks might happen next in a story is going too far. |
