For anyone who decides not to click, you're not missing out - the "episode" was equivalent to one of those millions of shitty GoAnimate "grounded" animations that you can find on YouTube. (in retrospect, GoAnimate/Vyond was basically AI slop before AI slop was a thing)
Considering Tay AI was deliberately derailed into becoming a Hitler-loving sex robot, and the first wave of AI slop featured deliberately offensive Pixar-styled "posters", I can absolutely see this happening. (At least until The Mouse starts threatening Showrunner with getting sued into the ground.)

So it's basically the machine from Rick and Morty a couple episodes back.
Rights holders of Mickey Mouse? The character from the famous public domain animated short Steamboat Willie?
(Pedant disclaimer: I know, later versions of the character are still under copyright protection and Disney still has trademark rights even for the SW version)
