OpenAI’s newly released AI video generation tool Sora has received mixed reviews from early users. According to Carl Franzen’s report in VentureBeat, AI filmmakers are reporting inconsistent results and unrealistic outputs compared to competitor products. The tool, which requires a subscription starting at $20 monthly for 50 generations, has faced criticism for its content restrictions and technical limitations. Some users have praised Sora’s capabilities for creating documentary-style content, while others point out issues with physics simulation and motion rendering. OpenAI has acknowledged these limitations, stating the model “still has room for improvement” in handling complex scenes and cause-and-effect relationships. The company has temporarily halted new account creation due to high demand, while competitors like Runway continue to secure partnerships with major studios.
