Beyond excited to partner with Disney!
Some highlights from #Disney CEO Bob Iger and #OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's interview with CNBC: -The deal is a three-year license, with exclusivity for the first year. -Disney will set (and evolve) the guardrails for how its 200 characters will be used in video creation. -Iger doesn't view this as a threat to Disney Imagineers, because they are not using name and likeness or character voices. -Disney will curate videos created by Sora to add to its platform. -Disney doesn't intend to stand in the way of technological advances. They would rather move forward with a sense of optimism. "It's going to happen regardless," and they would rather participate in it rather than be disrupted by it. 🎥(via @CNBC)
