AI Meets Resistance: OpenAI Halts Sora as Meta Faces Legal Setback:

An 82-year-old woman in Kentucky recently declined a $26 million offer from an AI company seeking to build a data center on her property. Despite her refusal, the company may still attempt to rezone nearly 2,000 acres in the surrounding area—highlighting how the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure is increasingly encountering resistance in the real world.

This growing tension is reflected across the tech landscape. OpenAI has shut down its Sora application, while courts are beginning to take a firmer stance on major social media platforms like Meta, signaling increased accountability for the industry.

In a recent episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Kirsten Korosec, Anthony Ha, and Sean O’Kane explored how the current wave of AI enthusiasm is colliding with practical, legal, and societal challenges.
