Only because there's no outlet for them, no reasonable way to achieve their ideas. IE:
>cod with anime girls
No one person is going to make a call of duty clone so the idea is dead unless you miraculously make your way into a director's seat with a few hundred million to blow. It's not happening, but the idea is fun enough.
But AI breaks down a lot of barriers letting idea guys manifest their ideas. This has become a reality with art and short clips, lots of non-artists are making art now because they can finally bring their ideas to life without spending years working on the craft. And that argument that anyone can become an artist is pointless because most people don't want to do that, they'd rather work, get laid, or enjoy other hobbies. There's the matter of talent too and most people don't have that.

Kinda depends what you're trying to animate, that guy posted something kinda 3D which AI does well. You can generate sprite sheets that kinda work too, using chatgpt. The style is shit though so you'd have to change them with a local model but at that point doing it from scratch might make more sense lol.
Kinda sucks that nobody trained an AI on sprites specifically, it's obviously possible. There is that retro diffusion company but I don't think it does much beyond walking cycles. I haven't looked at it in a long time though maybe it improved.
