OpenAI has launched Sora, its highly anticipated text-to-video AI generator, making it available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users. Initial reviews from YouTuber Marques Brownlee highlight Sora's impressive ability to create realistic visuals, including news anchors and news-style cutaways. While the generated videos are remarkably lifelike, telltale signs still distinguish them from real footage. Sora excels at generating landscapes, people, and stylistic content, but struggles with fundamental physics, such as object permanence. ChatGPT Plus users receive access to up to 50 videos per month at 720p, while Pro users get 500 videos at 1080p.

Sora offers several features including a "remix" tool for modifying existing videos, a "Storyboard" function for creating sequences, and the ability to generate videos from uploaded images. The model's ability to generate realistic-looking news broadcasts, despite its limitations, raises concerns about potential misuse. However, OpenAI is implementing safety measures, including watermarks and C2PA metadata to identify AI-generated content. The company plans to limit access to a feature allowing the creation of videos from real people's photos or footage to a smaller subset of users.
