On Tuesday, OpenAI announced Sora 2, its second-generation video-synthesis AI model that can now generate videos in various styles with synchronized dialogue and sound effects, which is a first for the company.

The company behind ChatGPT released its new Sora social media app on Tuesday, an attempt to draw the attention of eyeballs currently staring at short-form videos on TikTok, YouTube or Meta-owned Instagram and Facebook.

Business Insider found evidence that some users are so desperate to get on the video app that they'll pay for access.

The standout feature is “cameos,” where users can place a realistic avatar of themselves in any generated clip.

It's hard to recall now, but OpenAI wowed the world with its realistic AI video when it first teased its original Sora video model in early 2024, only to stagger the roll out slowly to a small number of creative partners until it finally released it to the public in December 2024.

OpenAI has officially announced Sora 2, its new audio and video generator, alongside a linked social app called Sora, allowing users to share and generate artificial intelligence -powered videos on a TikTok-style feed.

India is OpenAI’s second-largest market, but ChatGPT and Sora reproduce caste stereotypes that harm millions of people.

OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, announced the launch of Sora 2, an innovative app now available on iOS in the US and Canada. Promising to expand quickly, this launch allows ChatGPT Pro subscribers to utilize the groundbreaking features of Sora 2.
