Sam Altman: GPU Bandit, Ghibli Thief & 2000s Rap Star AI

In the AI wild-west of 2025, OpenAI stirred the meme pot launching Sora 2, an invite-only app letting users slam their faces and voices into AI-generated videos. CEO Sam Altman—in the roles of GPU heist suspect at Target, Studio Ghibli art kleptomaniac chased by Miyazaki himself, and 2000s hip-hop rapper spitting 'What happened to that boy? Brrr'—became the unholy mascot of this viral mayhem. Fans pay $45 for invite codes on eBay, turning Sora into a slightly dystopian status symbol. The app even courtesy-toed into 'South Park' pranks and dragon-backed Lamborghini joyrides. Altman called seeing AI Altman memes 'way less strange than expected.' A cautionary masterpiece and ridiculous all at once!
