The Walt Disney Company isn’t new to using artificial intelligence (AI), but we’ve been seeing it move into more and more areas and projects. One of the biggest projects announced is incorporating AI into the My Disney Experience app, allowing guests to use it to customize their Disney World planning. It’s brought quite a bit of negative feedback from guests, but Disney continues to push on with new technologies throughout the company and parks.

Hey Mickey!

Disney just announced a multi-year strategic AI partnership with Adobe, and we’re breaking down everything right here.

 

Walt Disney Imagineering is already using custom AI models to transform hand-drawn sketches into fully rendered concept art and generate franchise creative assets for theme park development, and this partnership is now extending to Disney Studios, ESPN, Disney Experiences, and Disney Cruise Line. Adone will serve as Disney’s Official AI Innovation Partner, providing the company early access to new AI tools and custom models trained on Disney’s characters, environments, and visual styles.

Both parties are excited to amplify innovation stories through global marketing activations, industry events, thought leadership, customer storytelling, and other strategic engagement opportunities. They will also help advance opportunities to explore emerging technologies, including responsible, developed AI, in support of DIsney’s creative teams.

It looks like AI will continue to grow at The Walt Disney Company. We’ll be keeping track of new projects and patents and, as always, share everything right here at DFB, so make sure you keep following along for more.
