I think this is always the worst part, if you have a concept that would be incredibly complex or time consuming if done by hand then AI becomes a more justifiable option, so why choose AI when you could film it instead?

Honestly I think so much of what makes it great comes down to how fast both the pacing and animation movement are, it never lingers for too long on anything and part of the humour is a permanent breakneck speed.
