DISNEY IS SURRENDERING your childhood to THE VIRAL FEED. In a SHOCKING admission of creative bankruptcy, the entertainment giant announced it will FLOOD its Disney+ app with mindless vertical videos—a desperate gambit to chain YOUR kids to their smartphones.
This is NOT innovation; it’s a CYNICAL plot to addict a new generation. An executive bluntly called mobile an “opportunity” to turn the app into a “daily destination,” proving the magic kingdom now peddles SCROLL-BAIT. But the TRUE HORROR runs deeper.
Buried in the announcement was Disney’s DARK alliance with AI. The company invested a STAGGERING $1 BILLION in OpenAI and will let users generate “entertainment” with Mickey Mouse inside an AI tool. Forget storytellers—soon, YOUR prompts will create the content. An exec chillingly stated this is to cater to Gen Alpha, who “expect to interact,” signaling the end of crafted narrative. Disney isn’t just using AI; it’s letting AI USE ITS SOUL, reducing century-old characters to INFINITE, HOLLOW permutations for clicks.
This is a CORPORATE FAUSTIAN BARGAIN: trading human artistry for algorithmic engagement, all while preaching about “respecting creativity.” They are systematically dismantling the very storytelling they built an empire upon, conditioning your children to accept AI-generated sludge as “magic.” The house that Walt built is now a DIGITAL SODIUM PENTOTHAL drip, designed to pacify and monetize attention spans into oblivion. Your memories are being ERASED, one auto-playing vertical video at a time.
