This inspires the feeling of hating both sides of a fight and hoping that they do as much damage to each other as possible before it ends.

You want my take, this probably isn't gonna injure Disney all that much - they're one of the largest megacorps on the entire planet, and they've got damning evidence of infringement against Midjourney.

How much damage Midjourney's gonna take (at least in the immediate term), I'm not sure. If they settle ASAP, they can probably limit the damage, but if they try and fight, they'll probably be bankrupted by the case.

For you, the day Disney graced your independent research lab was the most important day of your life. But for Disney, it was Tuesday.
