      I dunno, we’ve seen corporations come at each other many times before.

      Most of you people won’t understand this, but copyright and patent laws aren’t going to be around forever. They don’t help the working class and it’s only a matter of time before new generations rise above our tunnel vision and indoctrination.

      I mean, just look at this case a prime example. Who is the one suing? Disney. Who stands to benefit? Disney.

      Are the random joe’s suing? No, they can’t afford it. The laws do not exist to protect them. It’s another reason why we never see big corporations challenge copyright and patent laws. They know they make more money with them.

          I don’t see the irony. They perceive AI as a loop hole and need to squash it to keep their grip on things. If anybody can just prompt a movie in ten years, their business is dead. If a small group of indie animators can make a fully fledged movie, their business is dead.

          They made it fucked up in their favor, this lawsuit is a continuation of that.

            It seems like we’re going back to the 90s.

            When Microsoft wanted to destroy Linux, Another similar arc is coming. I wonder if there will be other Halloween docs.
