I predict a re-resurgence in life performances. Live music and live theater. People are going to get tired of video content when everything is fake.
One would think, but people are spending less on live events due to costs
How far out are we from doing this in real time? What’s the processing/rendering time per frame?
Amazing. iOS only, with region restrictions in 2025.
I love the casual reminds that we're second-class citizens each time a new technology gets released. Available in the US but always excluding Puerto Rico.
Sam Altman has made (for me) encouraging statements in the past about short-form video like TikTok being the best current example of misaligned AI. While this release references policies to combat "Doomscrolling and RL-sloptimization", it's curious that OpenAI would devote resources to building a social app based on AI generated short form video, which seems to be a core problem in our world. IMO you can't tweak the…
I'm optimistic about the Sora app! My hope is that it becomes much more whimsical and fun than TikTok because everyone on the app knows that all content is fake. Hopefully that means less rage-bait and more creative content, like OG YouTube. Nobody's going to get their news from Sora because it's literally 100% fake.
If this is anything near the demo they have been released, this seems incredibly good at physics. Wow. Can't wait to try the new app.
Impressively high level of continuity. The only errors I could really call out are: 1/ 0m23s: The moon polo players begin with the red coat rider putting on a pair of gloves, but they are not wearing gloves in the left-vs-right charge-down. 2/ 1m05s: The dragon flies up the coast with the cliffs on one side, but then the close-up has the direction of flight reversed. Also, the person speaking seemingly has their back…
For example, I saw a lot of people criticizing "Wish" (2023, Disney) for being a good movie in the first half, and totally dropping the ball in the last half. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm wondering if fans will be able to evolve the source material in the future to get the best possible version of it.
Maybe we will even get a good closure for Lost (2004)!
(I'm ignoring copyright aspects, of course, because those are too boring :D)
That could totally power next generation of green-screen techs. Generative actors may not find favorable response in the audiences; but SFX, decor, extras, environments that react to actors' actions - amazing potential.
The music industry already went through this with AutoTune and we know how that turned out.
