I... I did it... I actually hated something so hard I destroyed it. I kept telling myself to let things pass and keep my peace but this... This changes everything.

Isn't manifestation a form of liberalism?
LOLOLOL RUST IN PISS YOU FUCKING LOSERS!!!
I was confused about this because I could've sworn Disney just put a huge investment into them and gave them all their characters.
So did that deal never complete then?
Most of openAI's deals are just announcements of intentions to proceed to negotiations of investments of up to $X and have no substance
Market manipulation with zero legal consequences.

the free money spigots are off and the end of the bubble is near
yup, can't be a good sign for them. This was their second biggest project. Video gen costs a shit ton of money to run but still.
And they're losing out to things like LTX, which is fucking horrifying stuff that can run on just normal consumer hardware.
What is LTX?
Lightricks (LTXV), an audio-visual model that does text to video or image to video, complete with matching audio. It's uncanny as hell and gives movements and expressions that can best be described as "imagine a pod person poorly imitating the overacting from game shows and commercials", but is still a step up from any other video generation I've seen including WAN. Also it's open source and runs locally, although I'm not sure what hardware is actually required to make it work at all; I've heard it can be squeezed onto even older gaming cards and still run albeit slowly.
I hate it so much, despite also getting enjoyment out of seeing closed corporate models eating shit to lighter weight open models. This is something that shouldn't exist and which makes absolute garbage output, but it is still funny that it's beating Sam Altman's infinite fountain of grift.
Is it...happening?
if they have to care about money enough to turn sora off, the rest of the business model (such as it is) is equally doomed
What you made with Sora mattered
Skittles cat exploding into a pink fart cloud from a unicorn will be looked upon fondly by my children.
Waiting for the WSJ article that points out how this is our faults for not using it enough or smth.
This might weirdly be one of the only examples of a service that looses more money the more people actually use it. Err scratch that, probably half of the tech services are losers I guess, but this is an extreme example of a loser haha.

'you SELFISH consumers couldn't just be happy using the yearly energy expenditure of an entire family to generate 10 seconds of a dog farting and flying across the Grand Canyon. You make me SICK! '
So does the IRGC get credit for this kill?
I'm happy to give it to them, yes
Look at all the amazing things you can make with this technology!
Like...money?
Well, not really, no
Kill it. Now.
It all returns to nothing, it all comes tumbling down tumbling down tumbling dooown 
your work
cough, cough
So many babies are going to get hurt working on cars now that there will be no dogs to save them. And no more cats fighting off bears wandering onto porches.
What will I do now that there will no longer be videos of cats starting up a jug band or deer bouncing on a trampoline?
No more ladies throwing rocks at glass bridges.
This is crazy. In this thread I am seeing so many examples of videos being generated that basically already existed for real!!?!?! Deers on trampolines, cats fighting bears, people smashing glass bridges. Were the successful videos from Sora just rehashes of already existing videos on the internet? Is the technology that creatively bankrupt?
P.S. On wechat I get a lot of fruit people soap dramas, where some lemon lady gets pregnant, but the baby ends up being a pineapple and the orange man husband is furious because she clearly slept with a non-citrus man, and so he confronts her boss, a pineapple, who then tells him to calm down because actually lemon lady planned all of this and she is actually evil. And I wonder, who in the fuck is generating these? Is it a four year old men's rights activist? Christ on a bike, AI is a blight
Gonna have to learn how to paint whimsical scenes.
FUCK
This almost feels too good to be true
THE LIGHT OF SHI'A SHINES UPON US ALL
And nothing of value was lost.
Oh good now I don't ever have to know what Sora is/was
Sora's the protagonist of Kingdom Hearts
