OpenAI’s video generator, Sora, reported to require copyright owners to opt out. I suggest this new state of affairs may reflect the company’s risk assessment given the fast pace of innovation and fierce competition in the space. Move fast and ask forgiveness! 🫣 www.wsj.com/tech/ai/open...

I like to think that our work speaks for itself, but in this acutely challenging time, it is more important than ever to be clear where we stand: firmly and unequivocally on the side of the rule of law. I am proud of my partners and our clients for choosing right over might.
