Disney is eyeing a genius workaround to grab Character.AI’s tech and top-tier talent without inheriting its messy legal baggage. By opting for a “reverse acquihire” instead of a full corporate takeover, Disney secures the innovation while leaving lawsuits behind. This strategic move lets them bypass ongoing regulatory probes and copyright claims, potentially restructuring the startup through bankruptcy while Disney keeps the assets.
