    Disney is no stranger to hypocracy of that sort. Look at them making their billions off of the public domain (Snow White, Cinderella, Aladin, The Little Mermaid, need I go on?) while lobbying heavily for longer copyright terms to keep works they made from being similarly adapted.

    I’m so tired of hearing about “AI- this,” and “AI-that”

    Just use the tool where appropriate and stop treating it like a panacea

    Honestly, I find it ridiculous that companies like Disney want to claim ownership over the data used to train AI models. Training data isn’t duplication, it’s learning. The same way humans study, reference, and reinterpret. Trying to monetize every aspect of “influence” is a slippery slope that stifles innovation just to protect legacy revenue streams.

    This isn’t about fairness, it’s about control. And the more these companies try to dominate every avenue of cultural expression, the more irrelevant they risk becoming.
