Many Disney+ subscribers are fuming after Disney CEO Bob Iger announced in a full-year 2025 earnings conference call that the streaming service will feature user-generated artificial intelligence (AI) content.

Disney’s plans for the future of its streaming service may involve AI-generated videos. During an earnings call on Thursday, Disney CEO Bob Iger said the company is “really excited about AI,” adding that the technology could allow Disney Plus to provide viewers with the ability to “create” and “consume” short-form AI videos.

A new AI-powered app that allows users to create interactive avatars of their deceased relatives, co-founded by Disney Channel alum Calum Worthy, is sparking backlash on social media, with many users calling the technology dystopian and comparing it to the sci-fi series “Black Mirror.”

Disney's Chief Financial Officer Hugh Johnston told analysts the company had "built a hedge" into its forecasts to account for a potentially lengthy blackout of its TV networks on YouTube TV — the fourth-largest pay-TV provider in the United States with about 10 million subscribers.
