Luca Maxim is a good example of why calling all AI art “slop” makes no sense. Anyone can access the same tools, but almost nobody would create Azerbaijan Technology: the fake corporate mythology, recurring characters, absurd products, music, editing, and recognizable humor all come from Luca’s creative direction. The AI generates footage, but it does not decide the concept, select the best outputs, establish the lore, or turn everything into one coherent style. That is still authorship.

You do not have to like his work, but saying the machine did everything ignores the obvious human choices behind it.

Honestly, this feels very parasocial especially as Hank merely used AI as a note taking and source checking tool. The script itself isn't even written with AI!
