A story from the Universal Studios backlot describes how Steven Spielberg would dictate nine annual projects to his staff at Amblin Entertainment after meeting with unnamed "read-in" officials. This top-down approach to filmmaking is framed as a method for social engineering and propaganda. The segment also speculates that OpenAI's "Sora" video technology was restricted to prevent the public from creating their own high-level propaganda movies.
