Sora and Gemini: Innovations in AI

The 21st century has been dominated by video. First, camcorders allowed amateurs to make home movies, and by 2023, phones and social media platforms made shooting and editing child’s play and the likes of TikTok had become ubiquitous.

But 2024 is seeing another change – one that may shake the very foundation of video itself.

Sora, from Open AI, is an artificial intelligence construct that can produce film with only a text prompt. Soon, being on the spot with a camera or a phone may be unnecessary for those seeking to create photorealistic movies. Like ChatGPT before it, Sora may be about to change the world as we know it.

In the latest episode of Mike & Amit Talk Tech, the IMD professors discuss the latest innovations presented by Open AI in 2024.
