Amazon Swears It Didn’t Kill OpenAI Movie Because It Made Altman, Musk Look Bad

Amazon has denied killing a documentary about OpenAI's power struggle, rejecting accusations that the tech giant shelved the film to protect Sam Altman's reputation and avoid antagonizing Elon Musk at a moment when both men wield outsized influence over the industry's future. The denial comes as Hollywood and Silicon Valley grapple with the uncomfortable reality that streaming platforms may be suppressing stories based not on merit but on relationships with the billionaires reshaping artificial intelligence. The timing raises a thornier question: who gets to decide which narratives about AI's most powerful figures ever reach the public?
