OpenAI is gearing up to release Sora, its AI video generator, in the near future, following the announcement of '12 days of OpenAI' leading up to Christmas. On December 4, OpenAI posted on Twitter indicating "12 days. 12 livestreams. A bunch of new things, big and small. 12 Days of OpenAI starts tomorrow. " This sparked excitement, with OpenAI team members hinting at upcoming features on Twitter. Sora's lead, Bill Peebles, responded "Correct" to a tweet stating "unbelievably back. " Adding to the anticipation, The Verge reported that OpenAI plans to debut Sora and a new reasoning model during this event, based on insider information. The launch of Sora is expected soon, especially after a brief leak last month by artists protesting OpenAI's use of their work for unpaid research. Sora transforms text prompts into videos, and showcases remarkable capabilities.

Its website mentions, "We’re teaching AI to understand and simulate the physical world in motion, aiming to develop models that address real-world problems. " Future of AI video generators AI image generators have rapidly advanced recently, with OpenAI's DALL-E leading the charge. Now, OpenAI aims to rival other firms like Google, whose VEO AI video generator is in private preview. OpenAI had predicted Sora would launch by year’s end, and with 2024 approaching, the wait seems short. It will be fascinating to see Sora's reception and if the artists' concerns diminish. Soon, you'll likely create Santa Claus videos in time for Christmas, and perhaps some reindeer too. You might also like. . .
