The End of Hollywood? OpenAI’s Latest Video Generator ‘Sora 2’ May Finally Kill Off The Film Industry
Is this finally the end of Hollywood?
OpenAI this week unveiled Sora 2, a video generator app that many analysts are warning could spell the end for Hollywood and the wider film industry.
“Sora 2 can do things that are exceptionally difficult — and in some instances outright impossible — for prior video generation models,” the company said in a statement.
”Olympic gymnastics routines, backflips on a paddleboard that accurately model the dynamics of buoyancy and rigidity, and triple axels while a cat holds on for dear life.”
Slate magazine notes:
Hollywood is getting absolutely rolled here. It’s barely an open secret that the film and TV industries are already using generative A.I. under the radar (sometimes to patronize an “ethically” trained machine), with the attendant effects felt by visual workers who once anchored so much of mass media.
But if certain entertainment executives and celebrities think they’ll be able to save themselves by openly embracing auto-generation, they are fools.
