The creator behind El Tigre withdraws from Amazon's AI project
In a surprising turn of events on May 29, 2026, mexopolis announced that he had decided to withdraw from Amazon's artificial intelligence program. The creator, known for his work on the hit series "El Tigre", clarified that "I will not be producing the Punky Duck series" and added that "actions speak louder than words".
According to mexopolis, his original goal was to integrate new and experienced artists with new technologies, but it seems that the harsh criticism he received online led to a change in his position. While the creator thanked the audience for the dialogue, some users expressed great relief, as LucarioKid73 noted in a response to the network that "I had to unfollow him" due to concerns about the use of artificial intelligence.
The announcement gained widespread resonance on social media, with over 2.2 million views on the original post. Other users like KingSevenSeas echoed the decision, indicating the immediate impact of fans and content creators on artistic decisions at major companies in the AI field.
As of now, no official response has been issued by Amazon regarding the impact of the creator's decision on their AI program or the future of the specific project that was canceled.
