Yeah the idea that Disney wasn't already building their own AI shit to just pump out trash content, especially to improve costs on voice acting and render farms is pretty wild. What's happened at this point is

  1. They're worried about the bubble collapse, when a ceiling is reached that there's no way this is more profitable
  2. They don't have the time/money to fund bigger and and bigger server farms in an increasingly competitive space and it's cheaper to just align with OpenAI for now.
  3. They're hoping when number 1 happens they just scoop up number 2. People will stop using AI for their daily life stuff. People won't stop taking their kids to see the lion king 9 or whatever

Disney already attempted to use AI to replace the actors a few years, ago, it make sense they try again. they really want to stop paying ACTORS. they will probably try to use AI generated voice overs.
