Yesterday, OpenAI – the creator of ChatGPT – announced Sora, and it took the internet by storm. Sora is the firm’s new AI model aimed at generating videos from text prompts.
That’s probably the reason you’ve seen a bunch of high-quality videos on Twitter in the past 24 hours.
The release saw some of the most popular internet personalities engage, including but not limited to Marques Brownlee, MrBeast, Elon Musk, and many, many more.
And while there’s a lot of excitement, there are just as many unanswered questions, so let’s dive into what Sora is and what we know so far.
If ChatGPT is OpenAI’s chat-based model, Sora is the firm’s “AI model that can create realistic and imaginative scenes from text instructions.”
In essence, it’s a text-to-video. You prompt it with instructions, and it produces a video that’s supposedly of high quality and up to one minute long.
There have already been plenty of examples. For instance, MrBeast replied to Sam Altman’s introductory tweet, asking him to create a video of a “monkey playing chess in a park.”
This is what the end video was:
At a glance, the video looks remarkably well done in high resolution with stunning visuals and no apparent defects. Upon closer inspection, you can see that the chessboard is not proportionate to the size of the pieces, but beyond that, which we assume is easily fixable with additional prompts, the video looks well-made.
The official website gives the following explanation of the model and the intentions of OpenAI for it:
There is a detailed technical report published on the website as well. Users can find more information here.
OpenAI admits that Sora, in its current iteration, is not without its flaws:
Additionally, it may also have spacial details of a prompt confused – it might mix left and right and find complications with other precise descriptions.
The team has also said they’re building a set of tools to help detect misleading content.
We’re starting with the first and foremost question that perhaps most of the ChatGPT user base is wondering about.
To be as precise as possible – no, Sora is not yet available to the general public. Altman shared that the text-to-video generating tool is currently only in the hands of a number of creators.
There is no precise timeline as to when the model will be rolled out to the general public.
