I know I had said on the show before that, like my personal experience was that I stopped using it because although I found it like somewhat entertaining to see people do, if I tried to go from Sora,

over to any other social media app it I can feel it messing with my brain because I was just watching something that was you know labeled clearly AI and then watching something like on TikTok and I it was actually hard um for me to to switch my brain right and I thought no I don't like this it's like it's not a it's not a pleasant feeling and that was sort of the last time I've even

gone on to it.

I think the bigger story, maybe you guys already talked about it, is how it impacted Disney.

Because the whole idea was that... You guys probably already talked about that, right?

That's a bigger part of the story to me, or a big part of the story, is that

If you remember when Sora was announced, it was like, you're gonna be able to create, the big one I was thinking about is Star Wars, right?

So if you wanna create a lightsaber something something with a Disney property, Lucasfilm, right?

With Luke Skywalker or something, there was gonna be a way to sort of do that kind of like fan fiction type videos.

And that those videos were gonna, I guess,

be available almost like a short is the impression I got on something like a Disney Plus.

And so that people were going to be able to sort of remix the Disney, you know, cast of characters across the spectrum, you know, Marvel and Lucas and everything, Pixar and everything.

So anyway, they did mention in the news report about it and Disney's like, you know, their PR was like, we support open AI and their adjustment, AI moves fast, yada, yada, yada, you know, whatever.

But...

That was a big swing.

And for it to be kind of like, whoop, and swiped out, I do wonder if that leaves a vacuum for Disney to try to perhaps do something themselves or partner somewhere else.

Or maybe they're going to just drop it because it just didn't have the public backing whatsoever.

and support that they thought it might.

And it's just better to leave resting dogs lie type of thing.

It's like, do you guys feel like the, the overall consensus is, Hey, Disney, we don't really need you to have this.
