 Frighteningly. Having so many virtually identical women scattered over the long video leads to a cumulative effect that something psychologically off is afoot.
 
 And there's a certain 50's "pleasure-model" context implied in so much of the imagery.
 
 
 
 But still-- so many cool cool things in there!

          I think they look their best when smiling and not just a resting porcelain doll face.

          I can't even watch it. Too weird. Reminds me that I've never liked rotoscope animation because it looks creepy to me.

          Somebody set the "Eye Size" slider a bit too far to the right.

 |  That being said, it boggles the mind how far this will go in the near future. |

 I'm calling it now:  We're getting a major motion picture release, within the next 5 years, set in this retro-futuristic A.I. world we keep seeing all over YouTube.

          i didn't watch the whole thing start to finish, most* of the women seemed to resemble Taylor Swift. beautiful woman, yes, but enough already, there are other beautiful features out there ...

 *yes there were exceptions (like as Ron pointed out at 1:29, 7:46, 9:12, 22:29 are others), but most! |

          The visceral recoil I experienced when a silver dollar hot cake materialized and slithered mouthwards at 3:00 is not something I will soon forget.

          I recently did an ad that used AI to create the central image, and was fascinated and creeped out by the nonsensical artifacts it generated. It also struggled to close that last little gap to make something 'correct' - ie, how you'd expect a thing to appear.  In this case, I had a couple lying in bed and it simply refused to give them any bodies under the blankets though one option it offered was notably odd.
