Excuse the maybe dumb question but as long as it looks cool why does it fcking matter if its AI or not?

Because she could have paid an actual artist to make something cool.

she really has to be the most out-of-touch pop star going today... like, almost everything she does is bad

It’s disgusting, sorry not sorry. I don’t understand why people are using that word again. We’ve devolved as a society already, let’s not go further.

You think those look cool? It literally looks like some getty stock footage of people cheering, there's 0 creativity. If you're using AI at least make really cool personalised ****

it doesn't look cool tho. Like @Scarlet Witchsaid previously, it looks like corporate stock footage 

Maybe if it looked cool, it would be a different story

She just spent millions on an trip to space that lasted 11 minutes. Surely, as an artist, she could've hired someone to actually create these for her instead of typing some prompts on an AI generator?

Even worse, the AI generated images are just people celebrating her, like... ⚰️🕊️ Just ask your fans to send actual pictures celebrating you? 

I have no idea. U see like 3 seconds of it I cant really judge. At least its colourful ill say that

 

Im not saying its creative. Im just wondering if something being AI is really that deep or whether its ppl just hating extra cuz its Katy Perry

99% of people attending won't care but I find this so lazy... her team must really be on a tight budget

It's genuinely disappointing, from Katy or from anyone who considers themselves an artist and is seen as such by others too. I'd be very disappointed in Gaga if she did the same ngl.

[hELXIG 42,855]

It's actually despicable for a huge artist with so much money to forgo paying real artists and creatives and choosing to use cheap AI instead at a SHOW that people pay money to see. PLEASE Gaga never be so tonedeaf

I mean, if you have the budget to build such an intricate stage, outfits, and props, how come you can’t splurge on some proper visuals? She hired amazing artists for her backdrop designs at Rock in Rio last year, why settle for this cheap, sloppy mess? It just feels so out of place. What a disappointment this woman...

From what I’ve seen, she’s supposed to be fighting a rogue AI to free captive butterflies? I get using a bit of AI for that kind of concept, but she even generated someone making a speech? Like she couldn’t afford to hire someone off fiverr to do it irl? I’m pretty sure she even used AI to generate videos of herself too.

I am gobsmacked how every time she makes an absolutely awful decision, she makes another one 10 min later. This era isnt cursed, katy perry is out of touch. 

If it's cursed, the curse is Katy herself lol

I don't think she could've realistically predicted the backlash she'd receive from the space thing, but it's pretty easy to see why people keep dogging on her since Woman's World. Everything she's done since then seems either out of touch, really cringe, or morally wrong. She needs to get it together, frankly.

Nicki even tell her to get it together in the Swish Swish video!

It's a dark day when Nicki Minaj is telling you to get it together!

[RAMROD 108,173]

She really does it to herself. One poor choice after another.

And I'll say this with love to her, it's time to hang it up. better than further embarrassing herself like this, she clearly got nothing to offer anymore, be it in music or pop culture in general.

Imagine paying hundreds of dollars for concert tickets just to be shown some deformed AI crap.

I mean obviously Katy didn't sit at a desk generating wonky clip after wonky clip herself LMAO but come the hell OOOOONNNNNN.

 

(edit to add: i don't do concerts so i have no idea how much the tickets cost)

First of all it looks like slop. Its not art, its content if AI generates it for you. It unethical because the program studies other peoples art/photography and is not able to give credit to them. Its an overall trashy thing to do. There should be soul or at least at bare minimum someone getting a job when it comes to making tour visuals. She had the opportunity and every resource in the world (and in outer space apparently) to hire an independent artist/company to help make her show great and she chose the machine bc she is very low vibrational.

If Gaga relied on AI like this I'd peace out so quick and only listen to her old stuff like I do with grimes.
