X Thread Demonstrates Capability of Sora 2 to Duplicate Copyrighted Material
The thread shows the new video generation app from OpenAI recreating popular TV shows, video games, and more.
Yesterday, OpenAI, the prominent artificial intelligence tech company that's also behind ChatGPT, released its newest video generation application: Sora 2. Today, a thread on X shows how easily this app can create content that looks and sounds exactly like copyrighted material.
What’s in the thread:
Posts display realistic Sora 2 recreations of apps, video games, and TV shows.
Examples are Spotify, South Park, Rick and Morty, and Mario Kart 64.
Beyond copyrighted material, the thread shows the app creating real-world situations like a self-checkout stand at the UK grocery store Tesco.
Other demonstrations include Jesus DJing a Boiler Room set.
Much of this is possible because of Sora 2’s major update of creating videos with sound, including dialogue.
Why it matters:
With such realistic recreations, the potential for copyright infringement and deepfakes will skyrocket.
Major record labels are already suing the music AI platform Suno, claiming it trained AI using copyrighted material without proper licenses.
Artists and their labels will have to evaluate how to approach likeness, voice, and other elements that Sora 2 can recreate.
