\n\tAny additional backlash that Gwyneth Paltrow<\/a> may face for hosting a dinner with OpenAI<\/a>\u2018s CEO Sam Altman<\/a> will have to wait a little longer, as news arrived Friday that her much-discussed dinner in the Hamptons<\/a> to honor OpenAI\u2019s Sam Altman \u2014 originally set for this weekend \u2014 has been postponed.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen journalist Matthew Belloni broke the news of Paltrow\u2019s upcoming dinner party last week in his Puck newsletter, a groan went up from some corners of the internet. The idea of the nepo-baby-turned-wellness-mogul cozying up to Altman, the onetime boy wonder of the AI<\/a> world who, after being accused of \u201cdeceptive and chaotic behavior,\u201d<\/a> has just as quickly fallen out of public favor, struck plenty of people as a little too on the nose.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI guess summers in the Hamptons just aren\u2019t complete these days without sucking up to our new A.I. overlords. Luckily, Gwyneth Paltrow has you covered,\u201d Belloni wrote, sarcastically. Paltrow was also accused on X of honoring a man who runs a company that is \u201cactively replacing\u201d writers and actors.<\/p>\n

\n\tBut then \u2014 surprisingly, or maybe not, if you\u2019ve been watching Paltrow closely \u2014 she struck back at the haters. In what appears to be an AI-generated bit, the Shakespeare in Love star turned Goop founder posted to Instagram<\/a> a tongue-in-cheek series of dinner party invitations honoring cinema\u2019s murderous AI robot M3GAN, Sex and the City siren Samantha Jones, Shrek, Jessica Rabbit and Chanty Beluga, the viral meme character.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re serving swordfish burritos, Cheddar foam lattes on request,\u201d she captioned the post \u2014 a fittingly idiosyncratic menu from the actor and businesswoman who grew up among Hollywood elite, spending summers in France with her actor mother and director father (and whose godfather, lest we forget, is Steven Spielberg).<\/p>\n

\n\tBut the dinner \u2014 sure to send close watchers of the pair spinning \u2014 was postponed Friday, according to a report in the New York Times. No new date has been set, but people familiar with the matter told the Times it will happen within the next few weeks.<\/p>\n

\n\tSo how did these two polarizing figures end up on the same guest list at a posh East Coast enclave in the first place? It turns out Paltrow isn\u2019t just a savvy internet presence \u2014 she\u2019s also an investor in Altman\u2019s company, having backed OpenAI in 2023 through Kindred Ventures, a fund with stakes in fintech and other sectors.<\/p>\n

\n\tPaltrow is also friendly with OpenAI\u2019s vice president of global creative partnerships, Charles Porch, who the Times reports was central to arranging the dinner in his boss\u2019 honor. <\/p>\n

\n\tIf the Long Island dinner does happen, Altman might do well to study his host closely as they dine in her hometown of Amagansett, New York, among a hand-picked group of admirers. A Luca Guadagnino film, Artificial, which covers the tumultuous 2023 period in which Altman, amid AI safety concerns and reports of abusive behavior, was fired and rehired by OpenAI within a matter of days, is expected to be released this year. Some keen advice from an industry survivor like Paltrow on how to laugh off the haters could come in handy.<\/p>\n
