Avengers star bashes Disney for 'disgusting' layoffs
"I can't quite believe that - that Disney have let go of the artists who brought the current Marvel Universe to life through their genius and that the people who invented these characters and who designed them are being replaced by AI. I am so sorry, Andy. I am so sorry to every one of the artists who were let go."
"SHAME ON YOU for turning your back on the people who built the power you are now using to throw them away. Where are the laws that REMOVE all human art from the AI bank?!?"
"Why do they get to steal our brilliance and use it to make executives rich while the artists responsible for feeding their robots go hungry?? Disgusting."
Evangeline Lilly condemned Disney for laying off around 1,000 employees, including many artists from Marvel's production teams. In an Instagram video, she confirmed the layoffs with Marvel's Director of Visual Development, Andy Park, who was also affected. Lilly expressed disbelief that Disney would let go of the artists responsible for the Marvel Universe, criticizing the use of AI to replace human creativity. She questioned the lack of laws protecting artists' work from being used by AI and called out Disney for abandoning those who contributed to its success.
