Takeaway: Any discussion of an “allowable” use of someone else’s work is about potential defenses in court. It *does not* prevent you from needing lawyer $$ to fight a lawsuit from a major studio. Make this a risk-aware decision. Also, again, I’m not a lawyer, so take this all with salt 🤷

I saw - and in the end left because of - the change towards commercialization of research. The managers lost the long-term thinking that let commercialization happen organically rather than by design. Near the end my boss simply told me to work on product development. That's not research.
