Marko Slavnic
Two pigeons stand on a rooftop arguing over what an odd remote control device actually is, voice acting and all. Marko Slavnic makes the clip in Runway in a few hours from a handful of generations, posts it to X, and within days it's at 6.5 million views with people comparing it to Disney-level animation. Paige Bailey calls it "absolutely incredible" and says it "legitimately looks like a clip from a massive studio production." It also instantly polarizes — artist Twitter pushes back hard on the training-data ethics behind tools that can produce something this good this fast. The Pigeons Arguing moment becomes the spring 2026 distillation of the entire AI-vs-craft debate, all of it carried by one creator, one X post, and two funny birds.
