OpenAI’s text-to-video model is groundbreaking.

| “OpenAI announced a text-to-image AI model,“Sora,” that turns prompts into detailed 60-second videos, and the results are absolutely stunning. |
| Like, STUNNING. |
| Take a look at this video that seems like it’s straight out of an animated cartoon: |

| Or our top pick (for obvious reasons): |
|
|
| Why it matters: While not Netflix-quality quite yet, this is just version #1 (consider DALL·E 3 now to where it was 15 months ago). |
| Sora makes us believe that AI-generated movies really are possible. Other, more immediate use cases could include B-roll / stock video, video ads, and video editing—all using AI! |
| And Sora doesn’t just do text-to-video—it can: |
- Bring still images to life as video.
- Extend videos in either direction.
- Edit videos by altering styles / environments.
- Merge two videos.
|
| Pinch us: how crazy is it that we’re seeing this just over a year after ChatGPT? |
| More details to come next week—for now, access is limited to select users and you can read Sora’s technical report here if you’re nerds like we are.” |

|
|
|
|
|
| Our Report: OpenAI has announced that it’s testing a new text-to-video AI model–Sora–which can create realistic and imaginative 60-second videos, from instructional prompts. |
 Key Points: |
- Using prompts, Sora can generate videos in different styles, perform editing tasks (eg. extending videos and changing backgrounds), and create videos based on still images.
- OpenAI used past research to build Sora, using its existing DALL-E 3 text-to-image model to generate descriptive captions so it can follow the prompt instructions more accurately.
- Sora is only available to red teamers (experts in misinformation and bias) who are assessing it for “harm or risk”, and a few designers, and filmmakers for feedback.
|
 Why you should care: Sora isn’t available to the public yet to stop potential abuse, with OpenAI “engaging policymakers, educators, and artists to understand concerns and to identify positive use cases”, proving their commitment to making their AI products safe.” |
