AI Enterprises Woo Content Creators

OpenAI hosted a lavish weekend event called 'Your Only Famous Online'. The over-the-top, exclusive invitation-only event was held at Wildflower Farms in Gardner, NY, on the Hudson River. One of the attendees termed the event "the dreamest weekend ever."

OpenAI, which runs ChatGPT, termed the event a place for "healthy debate with social media creators and tech-forward influencers."

The lavish weekend soiree was fully funded by OpenAI. A spokesperson for OpenAI stated, "Creators are an important part of our community and how people get information and learn about our products. We welcome healthy debate as AI becomes more prevalent, and we want creators to engage with us, attend our events, ask tough questions, and learn what AI is."

The event wasn't cheap. The 140-acre Wildflower Farms boasts free-standing cabins and cottages costing from $2,200 to $5,400 per night. OpenAI picked up the tab for lodging and all meals, pre-and post-cocktail hours, and spa time and services.

The battle is on for who will control social media, the AI providers or the current social media platforms.

IMO, this is just the beginning of AI companies courting content providers and wooing them away from their current providers.
