What to Know About OpenAI’s New AI Video App that Could Rival TikTok

OpenAI's Sora 2 app offers AI-generated videos up to 10 seconds long in a TikTok-like format to compete with major social platforms, currently invite-only on iOS.

  • Last week, OpenAI launched the Sora app, an invite-only iOS platform in the United States and Canada powered by Sora 2, generating AI videos up to 10 seconds.
  • To chase TikTok's momentum, OpenAI aims to compete with TikTok and Meta while opening new revenue streams as Meta and Google intensify AI video competition.
  • The app includes an identity verification system that alerts users when their likeness is tagged or remixed and features a vertical 'For You' page limited to AI-generated clips.
  • Legal and safety concerns include rights holders needing to opt out to exclude their work, while OpenAI faces lawsuits and criticism about child safety and film industry impacts.
  • OpenAI plans to roll Sora out to Android and Sora.com soon, which could increase AI-generated videos and reshape content moderation and copyright enforcement.
