In a livestream on the morning of Monday, December 9, OpenAI announced that it will officially launch Sora, its AI video generator.

“We don’t want the world to just be text,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said. He also said the move is “Critical to our AGI roadmap.”

Sora will be located at Sora.com, a separate location from ChatGPT. Sora is included in a ChatGPT Plus account, and does not require another account or payment.

Sora is a highly anticipated video generator. It has taken months to launch.

Sora is designed to deeply understand the world and its physics. The launch includes a new Turbo version, which the team said will roll out later in the day on the 9th.

Sora will generate videos up to 20 seconds, in a variety of different aspect ratios and resolutions.
