Artificial will tell the story of the rise of AI from the point of view oF OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT.
It will, like The Social Network, tell the story of the egos and corporate clashes behind the next technology revolution.
Elon Musk was a co-founder of OpenAI alongside Sam Altman but they had a falling out over radically different views on how to take the company forward. Lawyers were involved.
Like The Social Network, this new project will also star Andrew Garfield. He will play Altman, and he is joined by Yura Borisov (Anora) as machine learning engineer Ilya Sutskever.
Simon Rich (An American Pickle) penned the screenplay
According to The Hollywood Reporter, after an Emmy nomination for Apple TV+ series The Studio, actor Ike Barinholtz is wanted to play Elon Musk.
It is suggested Musk has only a handful of scenes and is the corporate villain and partly comic relief.
