“I am utterly disgusted. If you really want to make creepy stuff, you can go ahead and do it. I would never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself,” he said in the video.
The video resurfaced following the release of the latest image generator on OpenAI's ChatGPT, which has triggered an online flood of memes featuring images done in the style of Studio Ghibli, the Japanese studio behind classic animated films such as Howl’s Moving Castle, My Neighbour Totoro and Princess Mononoke.
Since the release last week, AI-generated images depicting Studio Ghibli versions of Elon Musk with President Donald Trump, The Lord of the Rings and even a recreation of the September 11 attacks have gone viral across online platforms.
It was already possible to generate images with ChatGPT, but the latest version is powered by GPT-4o, the company's highest-performing model, and allows sophisticated results to be obtained through very succinct requests, which was not the case before.
Meanwhile, the company is aggressively lobbying the White House and Congress to make the use of copyrighted content by AI companies part of the fair use doctrine.
According to media reports, OpenAI is close to finalising a US$40 billion (RM177.32 billion) funding round led by Japan's SoftBank Group, which would be the biggest funding round ever for a startup.
OpenAI has projected its annual revenue could exceed US$12.7 billion in 2025, up from US$3.7 billion expected this year.
