OpenAI shuts down Sora while Meta gets shut out in court

OpenAI has shut down Sora as Meta faces legal challenges. An 82-year-old Kentucky woman rejected a $26 million offer from an AI company seeking to build a data center on her land. This incident highlights growing tensions as AI infrastructure expands into real-world communities. Landowners and local populations are increasingly pushing back against large-scale AI development projects, signaling a shift in how society responds to AI's physical footprint.
