Tyler Perry Pauses $800M Studio Expansion Due to AI Concerns

Tyler Perry has put a $800m expansion of his Atlanta studio on hold due to concerns over the impact of AI technology, particularly OpenAI's video generator Sora. He believes that the capabilities of this AI could lead to job losses in the film industry, making tasks such as traveling to locations and building sets redundant. Perry expressed his concerns about the potential impact on jobs for actors, editors, sound specialists, and transporters, and called for the industry to come together to protect people's livelihoods in the face of rapid technological change.
