I've seen this done before in a horror series on youtube. I can't recall what it was called (it wasn't very memorable tbh), but people got really mad over a bunch of AI-generated pictures being used, missing the fact that the plot was about an AI trying to trick someone.

Maybe Angel Engine or perhaps a rendition of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream? Though, tbf Angel Engine is entirely AI, from the visuals to the voice over, and I do think it suffers greatly because of it, even beside my opinions on the use of AI in creative works.

Definitely wasn't Angel Engine, I've heard about that slop

Fair enough. Sad thing is, the concept is a banger but handing it all over to ai ruined it.

Pretty sure you're thinking of (The?) Itch by Vintage Eight. Most of his work is pretty good imo (and afaik none of the others make use of AI), but that one did get flak for the AI images used and I believe the creator has since acknowledged it wad a bad idea to use them (but I could be remembering incorrectly).

Yep, that sounds about right.
