Yesterday, we mentioned how OpenAI could launch a TikTok-like platform for Gen-AI videos. Today, TikTok has officially launched Sora. So, what should you know about it?

 

Sora will have a similar UI to TikTok.

For your information, the app is currently available on a limited, invite-only basis for users in the United States and Canada for now. The app also features a TikTok-like UI.

Additionally, it displays videos vertically and can be scrolled up and down. So, you can generate your own videos or those of their friends with the support of artificial intelligence, and then publish them directly through it.

Moreover, you will need to upload videos and audio recordings of yourself to generate a video, and then you can use a feature called Cameo to integrate yourself with various backgrounds and situations.

 

It can be risky

At the same time, this leads to the possibility of this feature being misused by irresponsible people and generating various videos that lead to defamation and other issues.

Touching on this, OpenAI said that users cannot generate using other people's personalities, and require video and audio recordings to be uploaded at the initial stage, and given permission by someone for this generation.

This application was introduced in parallel with the introduction of the Sora 2 model. This new video and audio generation model is said to be better than before and is now more compliant with the laws of physics and movement.

Furthermore, this Sora social platform application is offered to ChatGPT Pro users first. Likely, this social application will also receive attention, like the sharing of “Ghibli” pictures previously using ChatGPT.

This introduction also comes after the introduction of a video-generated feature through the Grok application previously, and also the introduction of the Vibes feature by Meta, which allows users to browse various artificial intelligence-generated videos using Meta AI a few days ago.

 

The society is sceptical about it

In addition, the introduction of such applications has also received criticism from many, due to the impact on the slowdown of useless content, opening up the abuse of a person's personality and also affecting their attention spans, which are said to be getting shorter.
