Sora is about to destroy reality forever: OpenAI has updated the tool and the results are incredible

We’ve talked a lot about Sora in this magazine, and for good reason. The tool that converts text into video from OpenAi is one of the major concerns of Hollywood and journalism. Its progress seems unstoppable, and today we have discovered that the new update makes it almost infallible.

OpenAI has launched a new version of its text-to-video AI model, Sora, for ChatGPT Plus and Pro users, marking another step in its expansion into multimodal AI technologies.

The original Sora model, presented earlier this year, was restricted to safety testers in the preliminary research phase, which limited its availability.

Increasingly difficult to trust our eyes and a regulation to track content

The new version Sora Turbo offers significantly superior performance compared to its predecessor, claims OpenAI in a blog post.

This move positions OpenAI to compete with similar offerings from rivals like Meta, Google, and Stability AI. However, both Google and Meta were ahead of OpenAI in making their models publicly reviewable, even though Sora was first introduced in discussions back in February.

Integration remains a work in progress, although OpenAI is expected to eventually provide data integration for Sora comparable to that of its other models.

The videos generated by Sora will include C2PA metadata, which will allow users to identify the origin of the content and verify its authenticity. This is important amid global regulatory efforts to ensure that AI companies adhere to compliance requirements.

“Although imperfect, we have added safeguards such as visible watermarks by default, and we have created an internal search tool that uses technical attributes of the generations to help verify if the content comes from Sora,” states OpenAI in the post.

Sora (OpenAI) ACCESS

Even with these safeguards, the use of data to train AI models continues to raise debates about intellectual property rights.

Currently, Sora is available to users in all regions where ChatGPT operates, except in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and the European Economic Area, where OpenAI plans to expand access in the coming months.
