尼古拉斯·凯奇（Nicolas Cage）表示，他拒绝签署亚马逊为“蜘蛛侠：暗影”（Spider-Noir）提供的AI豁免协议，该Prime Video剧集已于上月被取消。据《综艺》杂志报道，他在周六的一个纽约动漫展座谈会上透露，他可能不会再与该制片厂合作。
Nicolas Cage says he refused to sign an AI waiver from Amazon for “Spider-Noir”, the Prime Video series it cancelled last month. He told a New York Comic Con panel on Saturday that he will probably not work with the studio again, Variety reported.
据《综艺》杂志报道，凯奇在帝王舞台（Empire Stage）上说：“亚马逊是一家非常支持AI的公司，向OpenAI投资了500亿美元。我不是一个支持AI的演员，所以这就好比是把这些线索串联起来！”准字他说自己没有签署允许制片厂在该剧中应用AI的豁免协议。凯奇说：“我可能不会再和那个制片厂合作了，但没关系。”
“Amazon is a very AI-friendly company, to the tune of $50 billion invested in OpenAI. I am not an AI-friendly actor, so it’s like, connect those dots!”Cage said on the Empire Stage, according to Variety. He said he did not sign the waiver that would let the studio use AI on the show. “I’m probably not going to be working with that studio again, but that’s okay,” Cage said.
凯奇提到的500亿美元这一数字与亚马逊自己的申报文件相符。亚马逊在7月底前完成了对OpenAI的500亿美元投资。据PYMNTS报道，该公司在美国证券交易委员会的一份文件中披露了最后一笔付款。这两家公司在ChatGPT的广告业务上进行合作，且OpenAI的智能体可以在亚马逊的云端运行。
The $50bn figure Cage’s number matches Amazon’s own filing. Amazon completed its $50bn investment in OpenAI by the end of July. It disclosed the final payment in a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, PYMNTS reported. The two companies work together on ads in ChatGPT, and OpenAI’s agents can run inside Amazon’s cloud.
一部被取消的剧集“蜘蛛侠：暗影”是凯奇的首个常规电视剧角色。据《综艺》杂志报道，Prime Video在9月4日播出了八集的第一季后取消了该剧。该剧获得了11项艾美奖提名，是今年所有Prime Video节目中获得提名最多的。
A cancelled show“Spider-Noir” was Cage’s first regular TV role. Prime Video cancelled it after one season of eight episodes on 4 September, Variety reported. The show had 11 Emmy nominations, the most of any Prime Video programme this year.
根据尼尔森的流媒体收视率，该剧在开播的前六周获得了26亿分钟的观看时长。该剧是亚马逊与索尼影视电视公司合作开发蜘蛛侠角色的协议中诞生的第一部作品。
It drew 2.6 billion viewing minutes in its first six weeks, according to Nielsen’s streaming ratings. The series was the first to come out of Amazon’s deal with Sony Pictures Television to develop Spider-Man characters.
凯奇与亚马逊仍有合作项目。据《Gold Derby》报道，Prime Video即将发行他的约翰·麦登（John Madden）传记片《麦登》。接下来：年轻导演，或许还有HBO据《综艺》杂志报道，凯奇在座谈会上表示，他希望与出自YouTube的Z世代电影人合作。他点名提到了《后室》（Backrooms）导演凯恩·帕森斯（Kane Parsons）。
Cage still has work with Amazon. Prime Video is releasing his John Madden biopic, “Madden”, Gold Derby reported. Next: young directors, and maybe HBO Cage told the panel he wants to work with Gen Z filmmakers who come from YouTube, Variety reported. He named “Backrooms” director Kane Parsons.
另据《Gold Derby》报道，他还表示自己可能会出演一季HBO的《真探》（True Detective）。HBO没有立即回应《综艺》杂志的置评请求。上月，《Semafor》报道称，好莱坞制片厂希望招收使用AI的毕业生。
He also said he might do a season of HBO’s “True Detective”, according to Gold Derby. HBO did not immediately respond to Variety’s request for comment. Last month, Semafor reported that Hollywood studios want graduates who use AI.
