Animator Sylvain Chomet is pushing back against claims that generative AI made his six-minute Dior film, Christian Dior’s Night in Color. Variety reports that Chomet’s response was: “Everything was drawn by hand.”
Why it mattersSome viewers pointed to apparent visual glitches, including a character with six fingers, as evidence of AI-generated animation. A stray digit can make for a lively internet detective, but it does not settle how a film was made. The dispute is a useful reminder that visual oddities can prompt scrutiny without proving AI use.
Discuss: Should filmmakers be expected to explain their process when audiences suspect AI, or should the work speak for itself?
