Sam Altman is trying to convince Hollywood that Sora won't destroy the movie business

Sam Altman met with Hollywood studios in a bid to show that OpenAI's video tool could help, not harm, the movie industry, the Financial Times reported.

Altman and Brad Lightcap, OpenAI's chief operating officer, recently held a series of meetings about Sora with Hollywood executives from Paramount, Universal, and Warner Bros. Some studios were receptive to using the tool in production, suggesting it could save time and money, but OpenAI didn't attempt to forge formal agreements, people involved in the meetings told the FT. The filmmaker Tyler Perry has said that he fears the impact of AI on the creative industries and that he halted the planned expansion of one of his production studios because of Sora.
