OpenAI Revolutionizes Video Content Creation with Sora

Creatives Can Break Boundaries with AI

Sora is not limited to generating new video content from scratch. One notable capability is to "expand" existing video clips, cleverly filling in gaps and adding missing details, with a nuanced understanding of language and physical reality. OpenAI proudly claims that Sora can produce videos in various styles, whether realistic, animated, or monochromatic, while maintaining consistency to avoid the so-called "AI weirdness."
