Is Hollywood Trying to Lock Up the DNA of Creativity?
It starts in the glow of the end credits. The music swells, the logos fade, and right before the screen goes dark, a new warning appears: This content may not be used to train AI. On the surface, it’s just a legal line tacked onto How to Train Your Dragon, Jurassic World Rebirth, and The Bad Guys 2. But underneath, it’s a battle cry from Hollywood, one that could reshape not just technology, but the future of free expression itself.
Universal Pictures is not alone. Alongside Disney, the studio has filed lawsuits against the AI platform Midjourney, accusing it of systematically violating copyright by enabling users to recreate iconic characters. The defense? Fair use, the same principle that protects parody, satire, and social commentary in this Constitutional Republic. The same principle that allows you to draw inspiration from the culture around you without asking the original creator for permission.

The Stakes: Parody, Commentary, and the Right to Remix
Under U.S. law, parody and satire have been recognized as essential to the health of a free society. They allow citizens to question power, poke fun at institutions, and reinterpret culture without fear of censorship. This is why artists can lampoon political figures, why comedians can parody blockbuster films, and why musicians can borrow melodies for transformative works.
If a human filmmaker can watch Jurassic Park, absorb its style, and create a new movie inspired by its pacing and atmosphere, why should an AI model be banned from learning those same visual patterns? Creativity, whether human or machine-assisted, has always been a process of learning from what came before and transforming it into something new. Michelangelo studied ancient sculptures. Bob Dylan borrowed folk melodies. George Lucas channeled Japanese cinema. If this learning process becomes “theft,” then all art stands accused.

Why This is a Constitutional Issue
This fight is about more than corporate profits; it’s about whether free speech and fair use can survive in the age of AI. In our Constitutional Republic, the First Amendment protects the ability to comment on, parody, and reinterpret existing works. These protections were never meant to vanish when the tool changes from a paintbrush to a processor.
If Hollywood’s position becomes law, the precedent could cripple independent artists, journalists, and creators. Imagine a world where every influence, every visual style, every melody, every recognizable reference requires corporate permission. That is not liberty. That is a licensed culture, controlled by a handful of intellectual property cartels.

The Bigger Picture
The danger here is that “copying” is being redefined to mean “being influenced by.” And if influence itself is outlawed, then the creative process collapses. True plagiarism, stealing entire works without transformation, should be punished. But an AI trained on thousands of images to learn the concept of a dinosaur in a city is no more theft than a filmmaker who grew up watching Godzilla movies.
We must remember that culture belongs to the people. It is a living conversation, passed from generation to generation, reshaped and retold in new ways. The moment that conversation requires corporate approval, it ceases to be free expression and becomes controlled speech.

Is Hollywood About to Own the DNA of Creativity? The Free Speech Battle Over AI Training Could Change Everything
Universal Pictures and Disney are taking AI to court, warning that training algorithms on films is copyright theft. But critics say this fight is really about corporate control over culture, and whether parody, satire, and creative influence will survive in America’s Constitutional Republic.
#GoRight with Peter Boykin Commentary
This fight is not just about AI. It is about whether a handful of corporations get to own the very building blocks of our culture. If they succeed, it will not just be algorithms under attack. It will be every artist, filmmaker, musician, and satirist who dares to riff on the world around them.
The First Amendment does not come with a Hollywood watermark. Parody and commentary are not privileges handed down by studios; they are rights guaranteed to the people. If we give them away, we will not just lose creative freedom, we will lose one of the most vital checks on power in a free society.
Culture belongs to the people, not the gatekeepers. And if we let them lock it away, we are not just giving up movies, we are giving up the right to create without permission.
#GoRight, because freedom of expression is not a licensed product.

Universal Pictures’ crackdown on AI training is more than a fight over technology. If Hollywood wins, it could gut fair use, outlaw cultural influence, and hand corporations control over the very DNA of creativity. This is not just an AI issue it’s a First Amendment fight over whether Americans can still create, parody, and comment freely without corporate permission.
