James Cameron, the creator of the film "The Terminator," has joined the board of directors at StabilityAI, an AI company that specializes in generating images and videos from text prompts.

Cameron's role will focus on using AI for special effects in filmmaking. His appointment comes at a time when AI image and video generation is causing controversy, with some artists accusing AI companies of using their work without permission.

Cameron is also facing the challenge of increasing StabilityAI's presence in a competitive field, where companies like OpenAI and Runway are also developing AI tools for the film industry.
