Open AI has just announced SORATU, their latest video model.

0:05.0

I've been looking over it for the last couple hours, and it is absolutely incredible.

0:10.0

Today on the podcast, I'm going to be breaking down everything that they have announced with it,

0:14.0

basically the capabilities of where it's at today, what it's able to build.

0:17.0

I'll show off their launch video.

0:18.0

I'll show off a bunch of examples of videos created with it. I also look at the response to this getting over on X in the comment section, which I find is really insightful a lot of the time and what people are saying over on my own social media. There's so much going on with this and this is an absolutely crazy model. So let's get into it. The first thing I wanted to mention is that this is going to be an app. This is kind of the big thing that they're pushing right now. It was the original version of SORA. There was a couple different places. You used to be able to go to Sora.com and then they kind of pulled it into the chat GPT experience. It was for just the, you know, the highest pain tier. And then they had different tiers. They brought it down for more regular people.

0:56.6

They did a bunch of things.

0:57.5

One of the biggest criticisms I actually got of people when I posted about this on LinkedIn

1:03.3

was from my friend Tom, who said, cool, still no minute long, Sora 1, like they said, though,

1:10.1

which is true. When they did the first Saur 1 announcement, they're like, and it's going to be a minute long Sora 1 like they said though which is true when they

1:11.2

did the first Sora 1 announcement they're like and it's gonna be a minute long

1:14.4

and blah blah blah and they never actually rolled that out so I think a lot of people are

kind of upset about that okay so the upset stuff aside let's talk about what this thing is

1:22.1

capable of because I have been really impressed and the first thing I wanted to do to

1:26.8

launch this off was to show off their launch video.

1:31.3

If you're watching on YouTube or Spotify, you can see this.

1:34.9

If you're on Apple, the launch video is talking.

1:37.8

So it's explaining all the capabilities.

1:39.1

So you'll be able to hear it.

1:40.5

And for anything that's just text on the screen, I'll explain.

1:42.7

But let's jump into this. It says everything you're about to see and here was generated by SORA 2. So that's including the sound effects and music. Sora 1 redefined what was possible with moving images. Today, we're announcing the SORA app. Okay, and I'm also just going to say really quickly before we do this, all of this is voice voiceovered by Sam Altman

and there's an like an animation of him actually talking it looks like him
