Big Tech重返大银幕--但它的老板们可能不会感到兴奋。
Big Tech is back on the big screen—but its bosses might not be thrilled.
今年秋天，好莱坞将上映四部关于科技高管的电影：卢卡·瓜达尼诺（Luca Guadagnino）讲述首席执行官萨姆·奥尔特曼（Sam Altman）担任OpenAI负责人的动荡时期;亚伦·索金（Aaron Sorkin）对Facebook和首席执行官马克·扎克伯格（Mark Zuckerberg）的调查驳斥其平台对年轻用户的负面影响并煽动暴力和仇恨言论;纪录片导演亚历克斯·吉布尼（Alex Gibney）讲述了特斯拉和SpaceX首席执行官的家庭生活、企业争议以及参与右翼政治的全方位报道;这是一部令人不安的纪录片，导演内森·菲尔德和兰斯·奥本海姆追随伊丽莎白·霍姆斯，伊丽莎白·霍姆斯邀请他们在她因在现已解散的健康科技公司希拉洛斯欺骗投资者而开始服刑前几周拍摄她。
This fall, Hollywood will release four movies on tech executives: Luca Guadagnino’s on CEO Sam Altman’s tumultuous time as the head of OpenAI; Aaron Sorkin’s the investigation into Facebook and CEO Mark Zuckerberg dismissing its platforms’ negative impacts on young users and inciting violence and hate speech; the all-encompassing by documentarian Alex Gibney, on the Tesla and SpaceX CEO’s family life, corporate controversies, and engagement in right-wing politics; and , an unsettling documentary in which directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim follow Elizabeth Holmes, who invited them to film her in the weeks before she began serving her federal prison sentence for defrauding investors at the now-defunct health tech company Theranos.
如果说2010年代带来了第一波大规模审查硅谷领导人的浪潮，例如用多部关于苹果长期首席执行官史蒂夫·乔布斯的电影对扎克伯格的相对人性化描述--那么它们主要描绘了困难、雄心勃勃的个人的形象，他们可能已经烧毁了一些桥梁来实现可实现的目标--最近的这个群体代表了一个机会，正如我在九月份所写的那样，重新思考这种观点。
If the 2010s brought the first major wave of examining Silicon Valley leaders, such as relatively human depictions of Zuckerberg with multiple movies on longtime Apple CEO Steve Jobs—they largely paint pictures of difficult, ambitious individuals who may have burned a few bridges to achieve the remarkable—this recent group represents an opportunity, as I wrote in September to rethink that perspective.
自2010年代以来，公众对大型科技公司的看法已经崩溃。我和我的同事广泛报道了科技公司首席执行官所监督的日益明显的危害，包括在海外战争中使用人工智能以及在国内大规模监视国家的持续发展。Axios 7月份的一项民意调查显示，大约七成的美国人表示，他们认为科技公司及其首席执行官拥有太多权力。
Since the 2010s, public opinion about Big Tech companies has tanked My colleagues and I have extensively covered the increasingly apparent harms that tech CEOs have overseen, including using AI in wars overseas and the continuing development of a mass surveillance state at home In a July poll reported by Axios about seven in ten Americans said they believe tech companies and their CEOs hold too much power.
Altman本周在Politico的播客中断言，“世界应该接受为了这项[人工智能]技术的好处而发生的一些坏事”，因为人们将用它做“明显比坏事多出数量级的好事”。
Politico’s podcast this week, Altman asserted that “the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this [AI] technology” as people will do “tremendously—orders of magnitude more—good stuff than bad stuff” with it.
由卢卡·瓜达尼诺（Luca Guadagnino）执导、安德鲁·加菲尔德（Andrew Garfield）饰演奥特曼（Altman）的早期报道，报道了他在2023年不到一周内被解雇和恢复OpenAI首席执行官的情况，这表明这部电影将对高管采取更具批判性的看法--奥特曼在周五采访瓜达尼诺的一篇文章中写道，对每个人说“是”。
Early reports around directed by ’ Luca Guadagnino, starring Andrew Garfield as Altman, and covering his firing and reinstatement as OpenAI CEO in under a week in 2023, suggest that the film will have a more critical view on the executive—the Altman of says “yes” to everyone, wrote in a piece interviewing Guadagnino on Friday.
“自恋者有能力了解地形并适应地形，变形，”瓜达尼诺告诉--他认为这会产生更大的影响：“拥有很大权力的人应该非常清楚，你必须对社区负责。”加菲猫在八月表示：“我认为，任何对一家公司或一项技术承担如此程度的责任的人，你知道这将对人类的灵魂造成巨大伤害。”
“The narcissist has the ability to understand the terrain and adapt to it, shape-shift,” Guadagnino told—which he sees as having larger ramifications: “People that have a lot of power should be very much aware that you must be responsible for the community.”“I think anyone who takes on that level of responsibility for a company or a technology that you know is going to do a hell of a lot of damage to the soul of humanity [must have] a certain ability to dissociate,” Garfield in August.
在亚马逊宣布向OpenAI投资500亿美元后不久，亚马逊米高梅工作室于6月份放弃了这部电影。大科技公司和富有的精英现在与文化、艺术和媒体的联系更加紧密。在周一发布的 故事中，奥特曼表示，他没有与亚马逊的任何人谈论过这件事，而且根据电影预告片，他认为电影制片人并不“追求准确性”。
Amazon MGM Studios dropped the movie in June, shortly after Amazon announced a $50 billion investment into OpenAI. Big Tech and the wealthy elite are now more closely tied to culture, art, and media. In a cover story released Monday, Altman said that he did not speak to anyone at Amazon about and that, based on the movie trailer he didn’t feel the filmmakers were “going for accuracy.”
“国家将会衰落。工业将会崩溃，”加菲尔德在预告片中说道。“我们要成为带领人们进入这个新世界的人。”独立电影公司霓虹灯收购了本月晚些时候，首映周一在纽约电影节。
“Countries will fall. Industries are gonna collapse,” Garfield says in that trailer. “And we get to be the ones to shepherd people into this new world.” which independent film company Neon acquired later that month, premieres Monday at the New York Film Festival.
