I'm utterly amazed! This video is entirely AI-generated. Just by inputting a text prompt, it produces the video. This technology comes from OpenAI's latest release, a text-to-video model named Sora. #openai

Have you heard about the launch of Sora? Interesting times. Innovation cycles are getting shorter, the cost of innovation is lower than ever, and massive amounts of people are accessing platforms and tech tools that have democratized content creation. The co-creation economy has emerged with an unprecedented strength via players such as TikTok. GenAI will definitely be a catalyst for all of this. In the AI world, periodic product launches have become the norm. Google enjoyed a couple of days of love after the launch of Gemini. Now it’s OpenAI’s turn again. "Introducing Sora, our text-to-video model. Sora can generate videos up to a minute long while maintaining visual quality and adherence to the user’s prompt. "We’re sharing our research progress early to start working with and getting feedback from people outside of OpenAI and to give the public a sense of what AI capabilities are on the horizon." And note: "Sora serves as a foundation for models that can understand and simulate the real world, a capability we believe will be an important milestone for achieving AGI." Fasten your seat belts. #SoraInnovation #FutureOfLearning #EdTechRevolution #DigitalLearningJourney

OpenAI just introduced Sora, a text-to-video model. It looks incredibly detailed and is able to generate wonderfully vibrant scenes like the one shared here. From OpenAI: "Sora is able to generate complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of motion, and accurate details of the subject and background. The model understands not only what the user has asked for in the prompt, but also how those things exist in the physical world." #openai #genai #sora

OpenAI has been racing to maintain its early lead over an increasingly crowded set of rivals. Sam Altman says OpenAI is going to “pay people who build the most useful and the most used GPTs” a portion of the company’s revenue.

JUST IN: Tech industry left stunned as Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, is suddenly fired. Speculation runs rampant about the reasons behind his dismissal. Altman's departure raises questions about OpenAI's future direction and the broader implications for artificial intelligence.

While waiting for OpenAI's SORA to be released more and more companies are releasing their text2video generators. Here a sample from Haiper. What are you thoughts about the future of the GenAI videos?

🌟 Exciting News! The first developer conference, OpenAI DevDay, will take place on November 6, 2023, in San Francisco. This event will bring together developers from all around the world, providing them with an exclusive preview of cutting-edge tools and the opportunity to engage with the OpenAI team. In-person attendees can also join breakout sessions led by OpenAI's technical experts. Don't miss out on this chance to broaden your horizons and shape the future of AI with OpenAI! See you there! 🚀  #OpenAIDevDay #AIInnovation #ExpandYourHorizons

#AItoZ | OpenAI just released something truly special. Right on the heels of #Google announcing its breakthrough video generator #Lumiere, which was a big leap forward, OpenAi releases #Sora. This is not just a step up from Lumiere, it’s literally a quantum leap. Not yet available to the end user, the samples provided are stunning. I don’t say that to be sensational, they are actually exceptionally good. I’ve used Pika and Runway for a bit of time now and although they were the initial entries into the #AI video realm, they have a huge uphill battle to climb to even approximate what Sora has shown it’s capable of producing. It’s exciting and alarming at the same time. What’s most exciting to me is the potential for a massive disruption to the stronghold that Hollywood and the core movie makers have help for decades. Similar to the way that the Internet unleashed a large number of new musicians onto the world stage without the shackles of the traditional music industry, so too will tools like Sora give us a huge wave of new short movie creators. With such powerful tools, an individual can make magic from their laptop in their home. The only restriction is their scripting ability and imagination. Don’t get me wrong, storytelling is the art form that is the secret to any video or movie. Without the creative passionate few that harness the ability to write moving stories, all the special effects in the ether won’t make for a good watch. And yes, ChatGPT can come up with ideas for you, but they don’t compare to human storytelling. Just watch a few Neal Foard clips on LinkedIn or his website and you will understand the mastery of the human element he brings to the most simple topic. What’s alarming about Sora’s power is the potential for abuse and misuse by people who have a darker agenda. The light on this darkness is that #OpenAI is holding back the release until they have fully vetting safety parameters to at least attempt to place guardrails in place to stop such abuses. The acceleration of text and image-to-video has advance astonishingly fast, a testament to how rapidly AI can evolve at a blurry pace.

First, it is a sign of an organization that is dysfunctional at at the executive level. They clearly politically miscalculated the cause and effect result of their decision. It is a symptom of the “irony tower” syndrome where executive leaders think they operate in a political vacuum. Altman was to prominent a figure in the AI community to just abruptly fire - political malpractice. Why give the board members who fired Altman so much financial compensation if they can’t effectively make such critical decisions? Isn’t what they are supposedly paid for? Second, I have mixed feelings on this subject. Altman stated that AI was a tool and not a species in an interview. However, he is in know way qualified to make that determination. He’s just an IT executive not an evolutionary scientist. There are more and more AI executives making such quasi scientific assertions regarding both evolution and AI with no scientific basis to support their opinions. In my newly published book “On the Origin of Artificial Species” I base my assertion that AI is today a tool with the potential to BECOME an artificial species on the ideas of Turing, Siebel, Nash, Einstein, Darwin, Gould, Plato, Aristotle, etc.

Who does it better? https://lnkd.in/epbMhXxX It's time for models to get multi-modal & it's really cool to see that you already have open artefacts like Idefics and Obelics for all companies to build similar features to what OAI just announced: https://lnkd.in/eWCGJ3Fn
