OpenAI launches Sora 2, a text-to-video model it says may be “the GPT‑3.5 moment for video” as it can follow intricate instructions spanning multiple shots

Our latest video generation model is more physically accurate, realistic, and controllable than prior systems.

    so.. apparently sora 2 is also a browser it's wild to see what types of capabilities emerge in the model this is sora 2 rendering pasted html (actual browser-rendered html on the right) [video]
  • @cloud11665 @cloud11665 on x
    Sora 2 can also do chaotic Japanese ads if you ask it to [video]
  • @benbajarin Ben Bajarin on x
    Given where I am, tried this Sora video. My voice isn't accurate AND it didn't pronounce silicon correctly. [video]
  • @apples_jimmy @apples_jimmy on x
    Sora 2 and the cameo addition is a smart play. I've used veo 3 for ages but for my non tech friends it didn't really interest them other than a “ that's cool ! ” They will flock to this. Google played it too safe, I need to test the quality first before I judge though.

    sora 2: sam altman goes into train station and makes everyone dance with him [video]
  • @keytryer @keytryer on x
    I think this should be a bigger deal. They didn't bring this up, but it seems like they're working on user-guided recommender algorithms from LLMs. Sam talks about this in his blog, too. I think Musk also said something similar. https://openai.com/... https://blog.samaltman.com/…

    saw a lot of videos with the cup water flipping an arrow (physics) which made me wonder if it can do chemistry. asked a few models to drop mentos into a coke bottle without specifying what should happen and @grok did best (?), but none were good. (grok, gemini, sora 1) [video]

    OpenAI's new video generator Sora 2 is insane [video]
  • @teortaxestex @teortaxestex on x
    I think it's tragic that OpenAI will never figure out why they're getting such over-the-top hate on the TL. [image]
  • @gavinpurcell Gavin Purcell on x
    My first direct Sora 2 output. Not too bad at all. prompt: “@sama on a lake dock, wakeboarding in a tuxeudo, in one hand he has a can of soda, in the other an american flag, he looks at the camera and says “Happy Sora 2 day everyone!” [video]
  • @willdepue Will Depue on x
    Sora 2 is out! I'm incredibly impressed that despite Sora 1 setting a ridiculous bar — as the largest jump in video capability basically ever — Sora 2 somehow matches up here. For people that played around a lot with Sora 1, it didn't feel clear that Sora really ‘understood’
  • @slow_developer Haider on x
    you have to be kidding me when someone said, “this is not a real video, it's entirely AI-generated” SORA 2 looks insane the Sora team put real effort into this, and it shows [video]
  • @billpeeb Bill Peebles on x
    Sora 2 is here! Our frontier video-audio generation model is a leap forward in physics IQ, steerability, realism, audio quality, and world simulation capabilities. Available in the new Sora iOS app starting today. [video]
  • @angrypenguinpng Miguel on x
    Sora 2 is the first AI video model I've seen that nails anime. Here are some examples👇 [video]
  • @kimmonismus @kimmonismus on x
    Sora 2: everything you need to know (the tl;dr) + clip-examples -Major leap in video generation: More physically accurate, realistic, and controllable than earlier models. Handles complex dynamics like gymnastics, buoyancy, and object permanence. -Obeys physics better: Models [vi…
  • @gavinpurcell Gavin Purcell on x
    just got access to sora 2 and one of the people they've got in the app with access right now is @jakepaul. meaning you can use his cameo to make other videos this video shared from @GabrielPeterss4's channel within the sora app
  • @mattshumer_ Matt Shumer on x
    sora (left) vs. sora 2 (right) prompt: “a group of people playing volleyball” [video]

    the person that uses Sora 2 to create a better Game of Thrones ending will be a hero
  • @minchoi Min Choi on x
    This is wild. OpenAI just dropped Sora 2 that generates realistic, controllable video with lipsync and sound. The Videos look insane. 100% AI 1. Step into any world [video]
  • @gabrielpeterss4 Gabriel on x
    after figuring out how to make sora 2 generate high fidelity cameos, i sent @sama this video idk what his reaction was but i could imagine some combination of who is this guy, wtf is this video, and WOW this is incredible [video]
  • @gabrielpeterss4 Gabriel on x
    sora 2 can create crazy good creatures if she would have made a cameo, it would probably look something like this [video]
  • @mmmbchang Michael Chang on x
    One crazy thing I was surprised by is that Sora 2 is super good at foreign languages, **even different dialects**!!! Here is @turtlesoupy at a farmer's market, one speaking with a mainland Chinese accent and one speaking with a Taiwanese accent
  • @trishlaostwal @trishlaostwal on x
    Interesting—OpenAI's Sora 2 allows people to instantly create ads via “remix” button—in different languages. Any thoughts? [image]
  • @adonis_singh Adi on x
    sora 2 still hasn't fully registered, like i was expecting this level of consistency and coherence to arrive maybe next year the audio also seems improved over veo 3 which is insane because veo 3 was already amazing in that aspect [video]
  • @scaling01 @scaling01 on x
    Why aren't there any good demos of Sora 2 Pro? or is it supposed to be artifacty, inconsistent CNN slop from like 2016?
  • @sama Sam Altman on x
    lol gj gabriel
  • @scaling01 @scaling01 on x
    Sora 2 might be cooked. Veo 3 seems better. Look at the artifacts and inconsistency in the background 💀 https://x.com/...
  • @gdb Greg Brockman on x
    Sora 2 is here
  • @scaling01 @scaling01 on x
    OpenAI's Sora 2 can generate Animes. The weebs will love it [video]
  • @yuchenj_uw Yuchen Jin on x
    Sora 2 has great voice, and face consistency. You can even tag real people like @sama, and turn them into a funny video. I might actually use this app. [video]
  • @andyorsow Andy Orsow on x
    Sora 2 has tapped into our innate narcissism and it is going to eat the world. 😳
  • @gabrielpeterss4 Gabriel on x
    TODAY WE LAUNCH SORA 2, THE WORLDS BEST VIDEO GENERATION MODEL feature you and your friends with raw real world physics, putting an end to the uncanny ai vibes let me show you how insane our model is, featuring me & sam altman: [video]
  • @danshipper Dan Shipper on x
    OpenAI just launched Sora 2! - A separate app - Includes voice synced with video - Cameo feature allows you to put yourself in your generations Psyched to use this, it looks stellar [video]
  • @sama Sam Altman on x
    Excited to launch Sora 2! Video models have come a long way; this is a tremendous research achievement. Sora is also the most fun I've had with a new product in a long time. The iOS app is available in the App Store in the US and Canada; we will expand quickly.

    Sora 2 livestream updates: - Sound generated with every video - Put yourself, your friends, or your pet in any scene (based on short clip) - Focus on motion, physics IQ, body mechanics - Can do longer narratives with multiple shots - Launching inside mobile app [video]

    Holy shit - SORA2 is crazy [video]
  • @luok.ai @luok.ai on bluesky
    API on the roadmap  —  Sora 2 is planned for API release—critical for pipelines, automation, and enterprise use cases once stability and policies are in place.  —  openai.com/index/sora-2/

    This is Sora 2.
  • @sama Sam Altman on x
    I did not expect such fun dynamics to emerge from being able to “put yourself and your friends in videos” but I encourage you to check it out! ChatGPT Pro subscribers can generate with Sora 2 Pro. Longer post coming in a minute.

    This is not true.  You cannot access it without an invite code.  [embedded post]
