Lemme share the tea for anyone who isn’t aware:
- Owl house is a show by Dana Terrace that ran on Disney
- It slowly developed into big pro-LGBTQ themes
- Disney panicked, cancelled the show, claimed it was unpopular despite excellent ratings
- Dana Terrace left with a bunch of others to form an independent studio
- Their first show (Knights of Guinevere) features a floating amusement park that rains garbage all over the workers below, and robots that have orbs on their heads that produce a silhouette strikingly similar to that of Mickey Mouse
Um, for those of us only just now finding out about this situation, what’s the AI issue here? Did they pirate some of Dana’s work with their AI, or is she inherently opposed to AI and Disney is just using it in general and that’s why she’s angry?
Full details: some people glean implications from people’s posts, I just want to clarify: I don’t care about AI, I’m just lost on what’s happening here (I only just discovered Dana Terrace exists after only just recently watching the owl house and being told about her other works, so I’m curious about if her stuff is being pirated by Disney via whatever AI stuff they’re doing)
Loving the irony of posting this to a comm whose branding is literal AI slop 🤭
