Sora 2 is OpenAI’s flagship video generation model. It is the successor of Sora, which was launched in February 2024. While Sora met with mixed responses and usage due to the presence of Veo 2 and eventually Veo 3, Sora 2’s launch has generated a lot of interest.

With Sora 2, we are jumping straight to what we think may be the GPT‑3.5 moment for video. Sora 2 can do things that are exceptionally difficult—and in some instances outright impossible—for prior video generation models: 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.

Sora 2 is also available as a TikTok-style app on iOS.

I’ll leave you to judge how good the model is (and it can generate sound too). All the videos below are completely AI-generated:

  • Sora 2 launch video

  • The most popular character for Sora 2 videos has been none other than Sam Altman. Here’s Sam stealing paintings from Studio Ghibli.

  • Anime fan-made edits are going to go out of hand now

  • Someone tried generating Indian uncles with Sora 2, and it did really well

  • Here’s Michael Jackson interacting with a bear. The physics are incredible.

  • Here’s Rick and Morty. Basically, all animated shows can have unlimited episodes now.

  • If you try older video styles, even human videos feel original.

Simply put, we’re staring at really interesting and scary times ahead!
