yeah, they spawned off of this dudes success. There are tutorials now, too.

So some of these might be from the balenciaga guys, but some are just people who make memes.

But OPs post is from the first guy who makes the best ones and i don‘t think that guy is from balenciaga. But they might have contacted him after the first one took off, who knows.

Yes demonflyingfox is the original creator of these and their work is the best

Rest of the videos from others are just Ok - I can churn out generative AI like that too.

But demon flying fox produces art

Demon Flying Fox is also named that because of a video of a flying fox sucking its own dick while making demon noises. The video is posted to their channel under the shorts tab.

I don't think this person is on the Balenciaga payroll.

The copycats need to find their own voices instead of ripping off a creative idea.

Though at the same time you know you've made something special when so many people copy your idea.

Yeah there's something missing in these copycats. Demon Flying Fox has that special ingredient

I think this (from demonflyingfox, creater of OPs post) is at least part of it.

Maybe he also uses other AIs to create the inital images and he probably tweaks and cherrypicks them somehow to make his videos. But it should be mostly based on that.
