          • “It has to be an all hands on [deck], whole industry approach. It can’t be one union fighting every contract every two or three years.”
            • “It makes me worry so much about all of the people in the business. Because as I was looking at it, I immediately started thinking of everyone in the industry who would be affected by this,’ including actors and grip and electric and transportation and sound and editors.”

                  • Sora is able to generate it like nothing and potentially let filmmakers produce movies and pilots at a fraction of the cost, but added that in the near future, jobs are going to be lost.
                  • Perry used AI in two recent projects: That kept me out of makeup for hours. In post and on set, I was able to use this AI technology to avoid ever having to sit through hours of aging makeup.
                  • Everybody in the industry is running a hundred miles an hour trying and catch up with Sora.

                • Deception (50%)
                  The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Tyler Perry has put his planned $800 million expansion on hold due to Sora's capabilities. However, it is not clear if this decision was made solely because of Sora or if there were other factors at play as well. Secondly, the article quotes Tyler Perry saying that he envisions a scenario where filming on location or building sets would be a concern of the past with Sora's potential impact on filmmaking. However, it is not clear if this statement accurately reflects what Tyler Perry truly believes about Sora and its capabilities in reality.
                  • The article claims that Tyler Perry has put his planned $800 million expansion on hold due to Sora's capabilities. However, the author does not provide any evidence or quotes from Tyler Perry confirming this claim.

                • Bias (85%)
                  The article contains examples of religious bias and monetary bias. The author uses the phrase 'mind-blowing' to describe Sora which is a text-to-video model that has the potential to change filmmaking as we know it. This implies that there may be some sort of divine or supernatural aspect to this technology, which could be seen as religious bias.
                  • Being told that it can do all of these things is one thing, but actually seeing the capabilities, it was mind-blowing,

                    Tyler Perry Puts $800M Studio Expansion on Hold After Seeing OpenAI’s Sora: “Jobs Are Going to Be Lost”

                      None Found At Time Of Publication
                    • Fallacies (75%)
                      The article discusses the impact of artificial intelligence on the entertainment industry and raises concerns about job losses. The author cites OpenAI's Sora as an example of how AI can generate video outputs with text inputs, which could potentially eliminate the need for physical sets or travel to locations. This is a clear case of a fallacy known as 'False Dilemma', where only two options are presented when in fact there may be more alternatives available.
                      • The author states that Sora's capabilities make him worry about all people in the industry who would be affected by this technology, including actors and grip and electric and transportation and sound and editors. This is a clear case of an 'Overgeneralization' fallacy as it assumes that everyone in the industry will be negatively impacted.
                      • The author mentions that he has used AI in two films recently to avoid hours of aging makeup. This is a clear example of how technology can improve efficiency and productivity, which could potentially lead to job losses for those who are not able or willing to adapt.

They mention that they have seen Sora's capabilities and are worried about how it might affect their studio expansion plans. The author also mentions that they plan to use AI in future productions, but are concerned about its potential effects on certain job categories.
                      • I had gotten word over the last year or so that this was coming, but I had no idea until I saw recently the demonstrations of what it's able to do. It's shocking to me.
                      • Site Conflicts Of Interest (50%)
                        Tyler Perry has a financial stake in the entertainment industry and may be hesitant to report on negative side effects of his own studio expansion. Additionally, OpenAI is mentioned as an AI company that could potentially compete with Tyler Perry's business interests.
                        • Author Conflicts Of Interest (50%)
                          Tyler Perry has a financial stake in the entertainment industry and may have an interest in protecting jobs. He also mentions OpenAI's Sora which could be seen as promoting their product.
