OpenAI’s Sora – a text-to-video generator – will be available to the general public later this year. The company’s chief technology officer, Mira Murati, revealed plans to roll out the new Sora AI video tool in an interview with The Wall Street Journal.

Murati also announced OpenAI's plans to integrate audio to make the AI-generated video even more immersive, as well as give users the ability to edit the video content within the tool itself. All such features are slated to arrive "eventually," which could mean they'll be integrated after the initial launch.

Speaking about the launch, Murati hinted that Sora will be available “this year” or even “in a few months.” One of the few details the OpenAI CTO revealed is information about Sora’s training data, which she claims was either publicly available or licensed by the company.

We’ve already gotten glimpses of what Sora can do, and it certainly looks like a power-hungry beast. But OpenAI wants to make Sora available at a price not too dissimilar to DALL-E. Given the additional features Sora will eventually gain, it’s already looking like another groundbreaking technology that will usher in a wave of AI-generated content.
