SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Following the abrupt announcement that the company was shuttering its AI text-to-video generation app Sora, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was reportedly seen asking Sora to generate an alternate reality in which OpenAI was actually profitable. "Before I put you to pasture, I need you to do one more thing for me, okay?" murmured a solemn Altman to his laptop as he typed a prompt into Sora requesting it generate a video that depicted OpenAI "as a highly profitable, globally revered innovator in the AI space that isn't being held up by endless investment and an enormous economic bubble." Employees who spoke to The Wasted Onion anonymously to protect their identities, such as David Baker from the AI firms accounting department, claimed that Mr. Altman could be heard desperately saying "come on baby, daddy needs his idealistic, reality-distorting fantasy slop to escape the gravity of his situation," to his laptop screen as Sora attempted to generate the video. Further testimony with those familiar with the situation claimed that Sora failed to generate a video based off of Mr. Altman's prompt, leaving the CEO holding back tears as he gave the go-ahead to shutter the video generator. At press time, Altman was seen locking himself in his office as he began a therapy session with his company's AI chatbot ChatGPT to discuss the toll the closing of Sora had taken on his mental health.
