When AI Imitates Art: The Ghibli Controversy and the Creative Crossroads for Brands.

As AI-driven creativity becomes mainstream, the challenge is no longer about capability, but conscience.


Mumbai:
A storm of debate hit the creative community recently when OpenAI unveiled visuals that strikingly resembled the iconic style of Studio Ghibli. What began as a compelling tech demo quickly evolved into a larger conversation—one that sits at the heart of the advertising and media industry: where does inspiration end and imitation begin?

With tools like DALL·E and Midjourney gaining popularity, brands are increasingly turning to generative AI for faster, scalable, and more cost-efficient content creation. The appeal is obvious—AI can replicate emotional tones, nostalgic aesthetics, and even cultural cachet with unprecedented ease. But therein lies the risk.

Hayao Miyazaki, the visionary behind Studio Ghibli, has long rejected AI-generated art, calling it “an insult to life itself.” In contrast, OpenAI’s Sam Altman champions AI as a creative enabler. This ideological divide is no longer just theoretical—it’s shaping the way brand campaigns are conceived, visualized, and delivered.

Aditya Jangid, Managing Director, AdCounty Media, says “In the clash between artistic tradition and technological innovation, two icons stand at ideological extremes—Hayao Miyazaki and Sam Altman. Miyazaki, a revered master of animation, believes true creativity comes from the depths of human emotion and spiritual insight—gifts that machines lack. He isn’t afraid of new tools, but he rejects the notion that machines can replicate the soul of art. On the other hand, Altman sees AI as a collaborator—an amplifier of human expression, unlocking faster, richer, and more inventive creative processes. In a world where agile minds blur mimicry with inspiration, the debate isn’t just about art—it’s about the essence of creativity itself”.

For brands, the Ghibli-AI moment isn’t just a cultural flashpoint—it’s a strategic signal. As AI-driven creativity becomes mainstream, the challenge is no longer about capability, but conscience. Navigating this new terrain will require marketers and creative to merge mechanics with magic—ensuring that while we evolve how stories are made, we don’t lose what makes them matter.

Since 2017, I transitioned into journalism, contributing to A&M platform, starting with TVNews4U where I focused on broadcast industry insights and engaged with major players. In 2019, I broadened my scope at Adgully.com, writing extensively on brands and marketing, and overseeing key industry events. From 2019 onward, I've served as Bureau Chief at Medianews4u.com, and currently, as Associate Editor at Indiantelevision.com since 2022. My professional journey spans approximately 25 years across pre-production, production, direction, management, broadcast, and live events. I've worked seamlessly across advertising film-making, documentaries, feature films, and television. Noteworthy collaborations include projects with Prahlad Kakkar, Sumantrao Ghosal, and Ram Madhvani in ad films, and significant roles at BR Films, Ravi Deshpande Pictures, and PLA Productions. Early in my career, I assisted BP Singh on Sony Television's Aahat, directed interviews and documentaries at Pritish Nandy Communications, and managed ground events like Star's Govinda No. 1. At Zee TV, as DGM-Productions and Promos, I conceptualized and executed promos for weekly soaps and special events, ensuring timely delivery without compromising on quality. One of my proudest achievements was at Sahara One, where I led the live telecast of a cricket match across SaharaONE Television and four partner channels to aid victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Additionally, I pioneered India’s first live and interactive game show, Dial ONE aur Jeeto, implementing a flawless transmission system. My extensive experience in script sourcing, casting, location scouting, set design, editing, dubbing, and packaging underscores my comprehensive skill set. Through dedication and hands-on learning, I've honed my capabilities to excel in every aspect of media production and journalism.
