Film studio Neon has bought "Artificial" — the Luca Guadagnino-directed biopic about OpenAI ([OPAI.PVT](https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/OPAI.PVT/)) co-founder and CEO Sam Altman — after Amazon MGM Studios ([AMZN](https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AMZN/)) dropped the film.

Morning Brief Host Brooke DiPalma is joined by Yahoo Finance Senior Reporter Pras Subramanian and Payne Capital Management president Ryan Payne to discuss the subject matter of the film and whether it could impact OpenAI's IPO expectations.
