Why Open AI’s new Sora 2 will make you never trust video again

I need to tell you about Sora 2. OpenAI’s new video creation app that’s both mind-blowing and terrifying.

This is the first tool from any AI company that lets you give you an insight, and literally in seconds you get a full-blown, AI-generated video of up to a minute. The results are not perfect, but they are close. It’s like close to Hollywood.

The lighting, the camera movement, the facial expressions are all surprisingly realistic.

Want to see a Golden Retriever surfing Times Square in slow motion? Complete. A drone shot of a city built from clouds? Easy.

People are using Sora 2 to create fake videos of dead celebrities doing things they never did.

• JFK was transformed into a WWE superstar.
• Tupac It turns out that Mr. Rogers was talking about respect.
• Stephen Hawking He was attacked in the UFC. Warning: I knew this was all AI, but it was still sad to watch. Strange, isn’t it?
• Equal Sam AltmanOpenAI’s CEO is stealing GPUs from Target.

YOU SANDERS: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SHOULD BENEFIT EVERYONE, NOT JUST A LAWYER BILLIONAIRE

I’m sure you know that under US law “slandering” someone only applies to living people, not the dead. This means families and estates have no legal recourse when someone uses AI to demean or misrepresent their loved one. It’s a free-for-all right now and no one is responsible.

Even scarier?

Sora is also used for tracking and imitation purposes. All it takes is a photo and you can make a video of anyone doing anything. Fake crimes, revenge content, political lies, it’s all possible.

OpenAI says you need permission to use a person’s face or voice. Yeah, like that would stop anyone.

If the man who runs OpenAI can’t stop his own face from being misused, what chance do the rest of us have? Currently, you can only get Sora 2 as an iPhone app. You’ll need an OpenAI account, and it’s still invite-only, so most people don’t have access yet.

Sora 2 is an incredible tool. But this is being abused and the guardrails are flimsy at best. So now, when a video goes viral, you better assume it’s fake until it’s proven real.
