Okay, so the junior VFX guys who could only get jobs making commercials should, now that there is less demand for them to make commercials, go make movies instead? Make it make sense.

Why are you assuming it's the junior VFX guys making commercials? Commercials have big budgets too.

It's the same studios. They do work both for Hollywood and ad agencies.

But if ad agencies decide they're happier with lower-quality AI for 5% of the price (whereas they weren't if junior artists were still 50% of the price), while movie producers are not, then yes. They can make movies instead.

Does that "make sense" enough for you...?
