Every new OpenAI announcement sparks some measure of awe and terror. Late on Thursday, the maker of ChatGPT dropped its latest new gizmo, a text-to-video model called Sora that can create up to a minute of high-quality video. Cue a flood of remarkable AI clips going viral on social media, while stock video producers, filmmakers, actors and some startup founders likely fretted about their livelihoods.
AI video-generation has been around for more than a year, but Sora’s examples, including a high-definition clip of puppies shaking their fur in the snow and a sleepy woman being woken up by her cat, look more realistic than previous efforts. The glitches are harder to spot and the humans look more human.
