Disney Pays $1 Billion to Let AI Make Pixar Characters Look Slightly Off
KEY POINTS
- •Disney and OpenAI announced a $1 billion partnership in 2024 focused on generative AI tool development.
- •The collaboration gives users access to Sora AI to create videos featuring hundreds of Disney-owned characters.
- •Disney Plus will host a special section showcasing content generated through this AI partnership.
In a bold move redefining crisis entertainment, Disney and OpenAI teamed up for a $1 billion partnership where money talks and logic walks. With CEO Bob Iger heralding this as an 'important moment,' Disney unleashes its Sora AI video generator to churn out endless Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars character mashups that suspiciously border on uncanny valley horror. Sora users can now craft as much off-model slime as their hearts desire, with Disney Plus reluctantly showcasing the digital chaos in a dedicated section. So instead of one polished Star Wars teaser, brace yourselves for 500 robotically warped attempts planned to flood your streaming nightmares.
