AI is evolving at an uneasy pace. 🍝 One year ago, "Will Smith eating pasta" was the best it could achieve. fast forward a year and the below is an example of Sora, the new video AI generation tool from OpenAI. 📸 The video editing game has changed completely. overnight, professional film drone operators are now relics, all video shots requiring "library shots" can be put together, by a prompt in minutes, not days and at a small fraction of the cost. 🔊 Sound will be next to accompany these videos. once this happens, the ability to create new video media or films continuing a favourite film or staring an actor that has since passed will be possible. The film and TV industry should be worried. #openai #sora
