Video creation technologies have existed for some time. AI has long had the capability to produce lifelike video material, and consumer-friendly tools are easily accessible. Both Google and OpenAI have introduced models for video generation from text and images, named Veo and Sora, respectively. So, what has caused this technology to gain popularity now with the introduction of OpenAI’s Sora application?
For those who are not in the loop, Sora is OpenAI’s AI-driven video creation app that merges a generator with a social networking aspect. It became available for iOS and online in September and has just launched for Android. Even if you are not familiar with Sora, it’s likely you have encountered a video from it shared on other platforms, such as X or TikTok.
