Recently, it has been reported that a movie depicting the internal turmoil at OpenAI is in development. This film will focus on the dramatic events surrounding the dismissal and subsequent reinstatement of Sam Altman, the company's co-founder and former CEO, within just five days. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie titled Artificial Intelligence is being developed by Amazon MGM Studios.
At present, specific details about the film remain undecided, but sources indicate that director Luca Guadagnino is in talks with the production team. He gained recognition for films like Call Me by Your Name and Challengers. Additionally, the production team is considering Andrew Garfield to play Altman, while actress Monica Barbaro may portray Mira Murati, the former Chief Technology Officer. Yura Borisov could potentially play Ilya Sutskever, one of the co-founders, who previously called for Altman's removal from his position.
Notably, Simon Rich, a writer from Saturday Night Live, is involved in the screenplay, suggesting the movie may incorporate comedic elements. Given the inherently absurd and humorous nature of the artificial intelligence field, this adaptation of real-life events into a comedy film seems fitting.
Looking back to November 2023, Sam Altman was removed as CEO and board member by the OpenAI board due to a lack of confidence in his ability to lead effectively. However, just five days later, after multiple discussions and negotiations, Altman was reinstated through an agreement. These dramatic events provide rich material for the film.
Regardless of the final cast, the anticipation lies in how the movie Artificial Intelligence will depict these dramatic developments and what public response it will receive, especially given the increasing popularity of AI tools like ChatGPT.
