Idk, seems like it would be an easy fix to tell the AI to generate more in-betweens to make the animation smoother. Not like you'd normally put that much work into hand-made animation that is not specifically made to showcase what animation CAN look like.
Also, the video might profit from actually comparing the sequences, at least by having the AI one and the hand-animated ones run side by side.
Edit: I'm saying the video is bad because it doesn't actually do any comparing and just lets the viewer guess what it wants to convey.
Have you ever generated an image or video with AI before? It seems you are looking through rose tinted glasses, since it cannot create higher quality outputs just by you telling it to.
Not to mention, real animation is done through start and end frames of a specific sequence, then going in between, completing that cycle multiple times until a full animation is made.
AI does it by calculating what's next from the start, so it inherently cannot produce animations that show consistency, let alone even follow deep prompts or a series of edits for image generation, from my experience.
I'd give the generative AI businesses around a decade or more to improve it enough to be a suitable tool for animators, but even then, they still would need to edit it AND cause inconvenience due to not properly animating (using assets, stringing them into an animation through motion and other tweens, and other tools), but just producing a video file.
