It’s neat that some people insist fan fiction is more “art” than LLM output. Disney disagrees.
Disney is fine with OpenAI producing derivative works from its IP. The evidence is simple. There is a licensing deal. Disney also holds about $1B in OpenAI equity.
Meanwhile, sell a hand-crafted derivative work on Amazon and Disney’s lawyers arrive at warp speed.
So the debate about artistic merit is irrelevant. Whether you think LLMs are inferior to fan fiction does not matter. Your opinion is not the one with enforcement power.
Disney’s view wins by default, because Disney controls the lawyers.

@atomicpoet or maybe copyright law is orthogonal to the concept of art
