Netflix zahlt bis zu 600 Millionen US-Dollar für Ben Afflecks KI-Firma

*More from Bloomberg News Reporter Lucas Shaw*

Netflix will pay as much as $600 million for InterPositive, the AI moviemaking company founded by Ben Affleck, according to people familiar with the matter, making the purchase one of the biggest ever by the streaming leader.

The actual price, paid in cash, was less, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the terms are private. InterPositive’s owners will earn even more if it meets certain performance targets. Netflix, which recently bid unsuccessfully for Warner Bros. Discovery, hasn’t disclosed the terms.

Netflix is buying InterPositive to accelerate the use of artificial intelligence in its filmmaking. The startup has developed a suite of tools that allow filmmakers to alter existing footage. David Fincher has already used the products on an upcoming film starring Brad Pitt.

The acquisition is also one of the largest AI deals by a major Hollywood studio.
