What mad world are we living in where Disney — Disney — is paying someone to lose control over its IP?

Disney isn't "paying someone," they're expecting to make money. They're investing.

The $1B turns into OpenAI stock. If Disney characters make OpenAI more valuable, that stock and its future dividends become more valuable.
