OpenAI CEO Sam Altman unveiled Sora, an artificial intelligence tool that converts text into videos.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Altman asked users to share caption suggestions for the videos Sora can create. He then uploaded few of them on the social media website.
we'd like to show you what sora can do, please reply with captions for videos you'd like to see and we'll start making some!

February 15, 2024What Is Sora?
The artificial intelligence model Sora is OpenAI's text-to-video model which can generate videos up to a minute long while maintaining visual quality and adherence to the user's prompt.
Sora is capable of generating entire videos all at once or extending generated videos to make them longer. Sora can generate complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of motion, and accurate details of the subject and background. It not only understands what the user has asked for in the prompt but also how those things exist in the physical world.
Strengths And Weakness of Sora
According to OpenAI, Sora has an understanding of language, enabling it to accurately interpret prompts and generate characters that express emotions. Sora can also create multiple shots within a single generated video that accurately portrays characters and visual style.
In addition to being able to generate a video solely from text instructions, the model can take an existing still image and generate a video from it, animating the image's contents with accuracy and attention to small details. Sora can also take an existing video and extend it or fill in missing frames.
However, the current model has weaknesses. It may not understand specific instances of cause and effect. For example, a person might take a bite out of a cookie, but afterwards, the cookie may not have a bite mark. The model may also confuse spatial details of a prompt, for example, mixing up left and right, and may struggle with precise descriptions of events that take place over time.
