OK, so Disney licensed their characters to OpenAI for three years so they can be legally used in Sora-generated videos; I figure Disney gets a cut of OpenAI’s revenue proportional to how often people use Disney’s characters. This includes Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm in addition to core. The article says that some vetted Sora-generated videos will go up on Disney+ (so nothing violent or sexual). And apparently they’ll be doing something with OpenAI’s stuff on Disney+.
So it’s a contract, but they didn’t buy a company. Well there goes that hope.

Didn’t Sora shut down in April? Haw-haw!
