It's probably not the best idea to base your clone on the name that is being trademarked: <a href="https://trademarks.justia.com/984/05/sora-98405663.html" rel="nofollow">https://trademarks.justia.com/984/05/sora-98405663.html</a>
I was forwarded a message just moments ago by my mother, a 5 second Facebook video, clearly AI generated - and I suspect Open Sora.<p>More AI slop for everyone.
IMO it's "pretty good" from a technical and power efficiency perspective, but to someone who doesn't know/understand/care or has to deliver a "product" this is far from good or acceptable.<p>Having said that, it's pretty impressive.
Assume "pretty good" here means "pretty good relative to Sora", because even Sora can't claim to be "pretty good" yet.
Anybody else completely apathetic towards all of this? I'm so fed up with the morally-bankrupt Sam Altman and Open AI as a whole that by the time another one of these "Hey, check out the latest blah blah AI blah!!" gets posted, my first (and often lasting) impression "meh".
These look like shit. Yeah I guess it's kinda cool you can make them with nothing but text but I dunno man, I could think of a dozen ways to make all of these shots that wouldn't have the sides of every object threatening to melt in the next frame. More difficult and cost more, I mean yeah, but again, then it won't look like a computer is hallucinating your scenes while also tripping on mushrooms.<p>If this is indeed the "future of making movies," I dunno, I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I have no interest in watching anything made this way. Sorry. If you don't care enough about your project to do something besides AI prompts, I don't think you have anything to say that I need to hear.
Anybody else a bit scared for how this tech will impact people? It seems quite far reaching. Job loss from video production and film. Ease of spreading misinformation, lies and propaganda. I could even see less investment in physical infrastructure as real world experiences get replaced by generated video. Scary stuff.
