Epic are giving away pretty much all of the Quixel megascan catalogue for free. Claim before the end of 2024 - but use your Epic account rather than any Unreal Engine one - there might be some (potential) licensing issues later on if you redeem them with a UE account only and if you want to use the files in other programs like 3ds or Blender.

Maya & 3ds Max Developer Autodesk Fires 1,350 Workers to Accelerate Investments in AI
- Autodesk is not relevant anymore, studio's are moving to third party software.
Maya used to be good 15 years ago.ApeRobot - A lot of big studios still use Maya a lot, it's still Industry standard along Houdini. But Maya development has sucked for a long time.NBQ00
- The original guy behind blender3d suggested there were probably only 20devs working on Maya. Not Autodesk's cash-cow.monNom
- The market for the software he estimated wasn't very large either. maybe less than 20k seats? Hard to remember exact figures.monNom
- Regardless, I'm sure the ability of AI video to make an explosion in 5 minutes has got to be cutting into their already tiny niche.monNom
- Making explosions is hardly all that is needed. And if then there's Houdini. Tons of people still use Maya as industry standard for character animation.NBQ00
- Oh without a doubt, that was a bit tongue in cheek. But there is a class of work that now has a ready substitute, and may be good enough for customers' needsmonNom
- Where there wasn't any substitute in the past - like talking animals with perfect hair. That was extremely hard before... now you can get it in 2 min of typing.monNom
- Not perfect - but good enough to sell junk food.monNom
- AI is still a long way away to be used for proper commercials or film productions. Unless you want uneven AI slop like the Coke Xmas ad.NBQ00
- VFX and Animation need proper detail action, camera and other type of control. And render passes. And longer durations, 4K and no AI slop artefacts.NBQ00
- I'm surprised you'd even think AI is ready to replace proper CG/ VFX.NBQ00
- It’s ’good enough’ for a lot of what constitutes vfx. Within a traditional compositing workflow, it can remove a bunch of work.monNom
- In painting/Out painting. Image to depth. Relighting. Face swaps. Lip sync. Matting/roto. Background plates. Style transfer. Concept art.monNom
