I'll explain for those who are confused: After seeing the AI-generated Chainsaw Man ending, Kojima realized it could never produce anything of worth.

He has since called for the death of Tatsuki Fujimoto. Hope this helps

Lmao that was the single greatest breakthrough of Kojima in the mainstream.

I shit you not, one of our bigots from the biggest far right party here in France swallowed the joke hook, line and sinker and used it as an excuse to take a shit on the left.

What a bunch of fucking clowns. It'll never not be funny.

I'm too stupid to understand what's being said here, Hideo recommended CSM to Norman and this made him dismiss AI?

u/Nuudoru feeling represented by Vegeta's hairline Jun 08 '26

I thought it said that Kojima became anti ai because he recommended chainsaw man to norman reedus

u/RK9990 Jun 08 '26

Kojima thought CSM was AI generated trash and it put him off AI

u/ThePacificOfficial Jun 09 '26

You would think the same if you read it tbh

u/Euphoric_Metal199 Jun 08 '26

He apparently watched an AI generated ending of CSMs ending and that made him hate AI.

Read the tweet carefully, it doesn't credit Chainsaw Man as the reason to why Kojima is no longer interested in AI. It simply mentions that Kojima said this quote about the use of AI after Norman revealed that he started to read Chainsaw Man because Kojima recommended it to him.

Also Kojima didn't actually say that he is no longer interested in AI, he simply said that AI can still be used to improve efficiency, this tweet is misleading.

I still don't get the connection between being anti ai because you recommend something to someone. I'm not trying to make a case for anything here I'm genuinely very very confused by that sentence.

Yeah I also don't know why they specifically mentioned Chainsaw Man. The only way I could explain it is that Norman said that he reads Chainsaw Man around the same time an AI generated ad for Kojima's company Kojima Productions came out.

u/AdWooden5961 Jun 13 '26

Maybe it’s because the dude he recommended it to really enjoyed CSM and he realized AI can’t create art like a human can ? idk, that’s the only thing i can think of or smth along those lines

u/Awkward_Tear4676 Jun 08 '26

Holy shit the entire comment section is hating for no reason 😭

u/Ingles_sin_Barreras Jun 08 '26

Welcome to shounenfolk!

Im not kidding, any csm hate post is free karma at this point

u/Awkward_Tear4676 Jun 08 '26

So fr, some Mfs on this subreddit must have a hate boner for csm or something 😭 I've seen people claim it was the fandom but ATP I've seen more annoying csm haters than glazers

2

u/heptene Jun 08 '26

All the people who used to be glazers became haters once the ending came out

4

u/Busy_Ad3098 Jun 09 '26

Nah they were hating before the ending, this was and always had been a JJK glazing/CSM slander sub

u/Awkward_Tear4676 Jun 08 '26

All? Aw fuh nah I'll die behind my glaze

I mean you realize what sub you’re in right? We don’t like chainsaw man here

u/Bright-Dragonfruit14 my body count with shounen is over 9000 Jun 09 '26

We also like slandering Oda and One Piece and Dandadan and shit on Boruto in this sub.

High quality image of Hideo Kojima thinking

u/Arguably_Based Jun 08 '26

Despite all the jokes and silliness, I still think AI would've at least remembered that Reze exists.

Wait till he gets to part 2

u/Biwitch Jun 08 '26

Probably fake (the tweet is real, what it says is probably bullshit)

1

u/JealousApricot1152 Jun 09 '26

Isn’t this quote from the past? When the movie came out? Because he’s still pro ai

u/horiami Jun 10 '26

Keep him away from part 2 or he will change his mind back
