OpenAI unexpectedly kills off Sora

OpenAI abruptly shut down its Sora video creation tool just four months after its launch, shattering a $1 billion deal with Disney and leaving the AI ​​community stunned.

OpenAI has just announced the discontinuation of Sora, the AI ​​video creation tool that once took the internet by storm with its ability to create films from text, just four months after its launch.

This decision caused the collapse of a $1 billion investment deal with Disney, even though the two sides had previously discussed using more than 200 iconic characters.

Disney received the unexpected news just 30 minutes after a meeting with OpenAI, described as a "real curtain call" in the tech world.

Sora once reached 1 million downloads in just 5 days, generating over $2.1 million in in-app purchases, but its popularity quickly declined.

Running Sora consumes enormous computing resources, leaving other teams within OpenAI lacking the processing power needed for the core product.

OpenAI announced it will focus on programming and text creation tools, prepare for an IPO, and change the CEO of applications to CEO of AGI deployment.

Disney affirmed that it respects OpenAI's decision and is discussing the possibility of collaborating in other ways in the future.

The discontinuation of Sora reflects increasing competitive pressure, forcing OpenAI to prioritize enterprise products over maintaining its risky AI video tool.
