AI? Looks rather like low tier CGI instead. Most “crowds” are CGI, have been for many years. They’re just usually made in a higher quality to hide it better.
In The Phantom Menace the crowds for the podracing scenes were just painted cotton swabs. They blew a fan at them to make them move.

That’s actually really cool. Practical effects and creativity >>>>>> lazy CGI.

That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen all week.
This technology will get better, to the point I imagine most of us won’t be able to see the difference. Scary stuff all around.
Though this shot is rather telling because that background character is “Center right” which basically gives it a spotlight. At that point, it is no longer a background, it is the scene.
Though, it is a high-school teen sports Disney movie, so I am not expecting much in the form of creativity or effort.
