I was thinking they probably still allow generating videos with AI and it is just that social media app that lets you give yourself brain damage by viewing a neverending stream of videoslop that is being discontinued. But no. I was wrong. They killed the whole thing:

OpenAI has shut down Sora and ended its $1 billion Disney deal, shifting focus away from AI video tools to robotics and task-based AI systems.

OpenAI has officially shut down Sora, its high-profile video-generation tool, and has also ended its reported $1 billion deal with The Walt Disney Company. The move signals a clear change in strategy as the company redirects its focus toward other AI areas.

There has been a lot of talk about AI making like, no money at all. Which seems to be true.

Remember there is huge incentive for the ruling class to pretend AI is the next big deal and super popular. They want it for defence and propaganda purposes. They're using it in their wars, and at home they're using it to fuck with the internet so people don't know what's real anymore. Most of the public hates AI and is not spending money on it. The money is coming from defence spending, tricking investors and useful idiots who think they can cut business costs by replacing their workforce. They have a reason to pretend it's doing better than it is.
