Sora's AI Video Generator App Sees Explosive Launch on Android
Sora's AI video generation model has thus far launched a client for the Android series and become a trending download on Google Play. The app garnered more than half a million downloads within the first 24 hours of its availability.
How Does the Sora Android App Function
The app has a very familiar interface, being akin to TikTok with a recommendation feed, likes, and comment features. The main distinction is that all video content within the platforms is created by users using the Sora AI model.
Two modes exist with which users can create videos: providing a text description or through the Cameo feature, in which a user may mention another user to be rendered into the generated video.
Generation and Limitations on Use
In addition to video, the Sora model produces the respective sound to clips. OpenAI has never made an official declaration of the limitations to generation for the app. Nevertheless, developers once stated they would impose restrictions on free attempts to generate and eventually introduce monetization mechanisms which would require payment for the use of well-known characters in videos.
Current Availability
The Sora client for Android is currently available to users in the following territories:
- Japan
- South Korea
- Canada
- Taiwan
- Thailand
- United States
- Vietnam
The areas will eventually be widened for availability.
