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

Disney has been a wannabe tech company for the longest of times. They started the streaming Wars with Disney+ and have had massive spend on AI already. There is virtually no creative or artistic talent left in the company.

Isn't Disney on of the oldest tech companies of all time?

The engineering that goes into their parks is insane, and they have been consistently pushing live experiences. The logistics that goes on in the background to let as many people as possible have a good experience is also insane.

And that's just Disneyland. There's a guy on youtube who makes fascinating hour-long documentaries about every aspect of Disneyland.

His recent videos on Imagineering's animatronics and "Living Characters" was incredible.
