Sora, the new AI video generator
AI Video generators have been making progress over the past year; however, they still mostly had a very surreal and glitchy look to the video created. The video often contains shimmering artifacts or weird morphing of objects. Most AI video was easily recognizable.
As of today that is no more. Sora, OpenAI’s new text-to-video generator, is a pivotal moment in the advancement of AI video capability. It is stunning and nearly perfect. Certainly good enough that the majority of people will be convinced it is real without diligent scrutiny and it is only February 2024.
Post-truth is here and we are not prepared for what this is going to do to society.
In 2025 we can expect a substantial amount of online video content will be fake. AI will not be surpassed in the quest for attention. There will be an evolution of social media for content creators that don’t actually exist. Malicious content, scams and disinformation are getting a significant upgrade. Societal paranoia incoming!
