Why is Hollywood upset with OpenAI?
Asked 2 hours ago
Answer
Hollywood is upset with OpenAI because its Sora video model initially used copyrighted material from entertainment companies unless they opted out, which studios argue violates copyright law. Studios are concerned about both direct and indirect use of protected characters and want more control over their intellectual property. The Motion Picture Association has accused OpenAI of copyright infringement, and there are fears about the impact on jobs and the spread of misinformation.
