Who’s actually making money with AI? Ben Affleck’s recent interview went viral on X. He said AI is just matrix multiplication—lots of floating-point numbers calculating— it’s only guessing the next word, not thinking. In March this year, he sold his AI company, InterPositive, to Netflix. Netflix’s quarterly report clearly states: approximately $587 million in cash, with only 16 employees total. Their work is highly practical: They take raw footage they’ve shot themselves and train a model dedicated solely to that film. During post-production, they use it to correct lighting, adjust color grading, remove wires, and even reconstruct missed shots. He understands AI clearly—as a tool. And because he understands it clearly, he knows exactly which problems to solve with it. 16 people. $587 million. The person in Hollywood who understands AI best might just be Batman.
