The problem
Automated output can be fast and unusable, or confidently wrong.
The choice
Use human direction, acceptance gates and measured production metrics.
Why this direction
The local neural mesh pilot was rejected and language-model errors were recorded.
What it changed
Proposed hires remain funding-dependent; experienced review is real work.
Later revisions
No autonomous studio, newly trained model or proven superiority is claimed.
This is a concise decision record. It does not invent undocumented alternatives or private reasoning.
Evidence & perspective
- SkunkWorks local application handoff
Local application and limited fixtures were exercised. A neural mesh pilot was rejected; neural image and rigging capabilities have blockers. No new model training or proven vendor superiority.
