The next generation of OpenAI’s video generator is here. Sora 2, the company’s latest video and audio generation model, touts upgraded photorealistic video capabilities, and a new Sora app is being billed as a social platform for users to share, remix and discover AI-generated videos. Introduced in a livestream Tuesday afternoon, Sora 2 represents the latest in a wave of multimedia generative AI tools allowing users to create increasingly realistic images, video and audio. Building on previous AI image generation technology, Sora 2 allows users to create “cameos,” or guest appearances, of themselves and others in videos. The feature requires users to make a one-time video and audio recording of themselves to verify their identity. Like many existing social media platforms, the Sora app will feature an algorithmic feed displaying videos tailored to users’ interests based on who they interact with and the topics they might engage with. The feed will include a “steerable ranking” system for users to further personalize what they want to see, according to details published by OpenAI.
