Not going to get into the AI debate; I will agree that BAD CGI sucks; there’s so much CGI you never even notice and without it the scenes would be horrible. The main reason “CGI sucks” is because of the shift to go with the lowest bidder who’s then forced to work under horrific timelines and unable to actually do good work. CGI itself doesn’t suck, but it absolutely can when done by a low bidder in 1/4 of the time it needs.

    Funny he uses Michael bay as an example in that video. Nothing will put me to sleep faster than a Michael bay movies effects.

    I get your point though, it's a tool when used artistically and with skill can be fine.
