Disney and Universal Call Out AI for Creative Theft

They’ve had enough of AI mimicry—and now they’re kicking back. Disney and Universal sued AI image-generator Midjourney for ripping off Yoda and the Minions. Hollywood’s big beef?

Midjourney not only trained its software using copyrighted images but also generated eerily precise copies, making it a “bottomless pit of plagiarism.” They want Midjourney to stop releasing its video tool and pay damages. After years of silence, Hollywood’s business side is speaking up—because, apparently, AI’s great until it starts messing with their money.
