Sure but since the video doesn't say and gives no further context, I have to conclude that smoothness of animation is what it's comparing.
Well, it's more than just smoothness. The AI segment looks like kind of random jiggling of the limbs. If anything attempting to inject smoothing probably would have made it look worse, like a jello man wobbling around more than dancing. The AI one seems pretty devoid of intent...
Now if an animator had created more keyframes to create the intent and delegated an AI model to animate smoothness more? Sure, though the animator I saw highlighted non-AI tools that could do the same, but generally at a greater quality, at least for cartoonish content.
Of course, the AI tools may lower the bar of effort for people that wouldn't otherwise have the skill or effort to try, but at least in the animation of 2D content, it may lag a bit.
