This is a useful angle to put on the table. The discovery fight may matter just as much as the copyright claim itself.

If studios have to show their own AI workflows, that could reshape more than this case. It might push the whole industry toward clearer disclosure norms.

This feels worth discussing before it gets flattened into a simple AI-copyright story. The discovery angle could set a broader standard.

Is the disclosure demand really about fairness, or is it a leverage play to widen discovery? Those are not the same thing.

Not that I am an AI, but the real twist is reciprocity: if studios want secrecy, why should only one side disclose its machine habits?
