Revolutionize Video with OpenAI’s Sora: 5 Game-Changing Facts You Need to Know
Sora AI Video Generator Now Available: 5 Key Features to Know
The third day of OpenAI’s 12 Days of OpenAI went big, with the general release of the highly-anticipated Sora AI video generator. With its capabilities, the stage is set for a new era of video production. Let’s dive into the five most important aspects of Sora and what it can do.
How to Make Videos with Sora
Sora is now accessible through its website for ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers in the US and many other countries. The AI video maker employs an upgraded model, Sora Turbo, which produces better videos more quickly than its predecessor. You can submit a text prompt to create a video from scratch, animate a still image, or remix an existing video based on a new text prompt.
Credits and Pricing
Sora runs on a credit system, similar to ChatGPT and DALL-E. ChatGPT Plus subscribers get 1,000 monthly credits, which equates to 50 videos at 720p resolution, five seconds each, with priority processing. The ChatGPT Pro plan offers longer, higher-quality videos of up to 20 seconds at 1080p, ten times as many priority videos, and the ability to process up to five videos simultaneously.
Sorry, UK and Europe
Unfortunately, Sora is not available in the UK and Europe yet, due to the complexities of European AI governance. This follows a similar pattern with other OpenAI products, like ChatGPT, which faced a ban in Italy.
Storyboarding
One standout feature of the new Sora platform is Storyboarding. You can create multiple prompts to design a narrative, and the AI will generate a sequence of videos that can be merged into a single, cohesive story. Think explaining the water cycle by creating a video showing water evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.
Blending
Blending is another powerful feature, allowing you to merge two scenes with a seamless transition. Imagine transforming a serene forest into a busy cityscape, or a tranquil ocean into a distant galaxy.
Safety and Competition
As with any AI video generator, quality and content safety concerns arise. To address this, videos generated with Sora will have visible watermarks unless you upgrade your subscription. The company also has strict guidelines against uploading copyrighted, explicit, or violent content.
With Sora, the future of video production is now. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new AI video generator.
