- Sora is a new generative video model developed by OpenAI that can create detailed, high-definition Hollywood-grade clips up to a 1-minute long from a short text description.
- Sora possesses an understanding of the physical world, allowing it to interpret prompts not just literally, but also realistically.
- Sora stands out from other text-to-video AI projects due to its striking photorealism.
- Sora is a generalist model of visual data, capable of generating high fidelity videos of diverse durations, aspect ratios, and resolutions.
- Sora’s advanced language processing allows it to precisely interpret your prompts and generate characters that accurately portray emotion.
- Sora is not perfect, yet. While amazing, Sora can sometimes trip up on complex physics or cause-and-effect situations.
- OpenAI is adapting a fake-image detector developed for DALL-E 3 to use with Sora and embedding industry-standard metadata tags to track how an image was generated.
- Sora utilizes a diffusion process, akin to refining a blurry image, to generate videos by iteratively removing noise and adding details.
