Filtered: Disney x OpenAI Sora, Canada’s H-1B Play, Tourist Social Screening, and WaPo’s A.I. Podcast Problem
Loading player...
Disney is making a watershed A.I. move: a $1B investment in OpenAI and a deal to bring 200+ Disney/Pixar/Marvel/Star Wars characters into Sora-generated short videos, raising big questions about creator compensation, brand control, and whether legacy IP can crowd out new storytelling.
Then: Canada launches a major talent push, fast-tracking pathways for U.S. H-1B holders, while the U.S. rolls out a $1M “gold card” residency option, fueling debate over whether America is pricing out the next generation of innovators.
Also, A new U.S. proposal could require tourists from visa-waiver countries to submit 5 years of social media, plus extensive personal data, potentially chilling tourism and hitting travel-dependent states.
Finally, The Washington Post’s A.I.-generated personalized podcasts face credibility problems after reported errors, while A.I. video becomes a political weapon, highlighted by Gov. Gavin Newsom’s A.I. response clip to a viral White House post.
