Darren Aronofsky's new AI-generated YouTube series dramatizing the American Revolution has been met with widespread criticism for its poor quality. The series, "On This Day... 1776," uses AI visuals and SAG voice actors to depict historical events, aiming to show the Revolution as a fragile experiment. However, critics describe the visuals as distorted and the editing as manic. The project, a collaboration with Google DeepMind, has been called "unwatchable" and "slop," with viewers comparing it unfavorably to traditional filmmaking and even amusement park animatronics.
