This is clearly a sign that the product failed to draw in enough customers and its viability was overhyped.

    Disney execs would kill 2% of their audience, individually, with their teeth if they thought it meant they never had to pay an artist again. For my money it’s OpenAI that backed out because they’re not able to deliver on whatever horse shit story they sold Disney about what “AI” can do.
