OpenAI is getting into the holiday spirit with its "12 Days of OpenAI" event, featuring daily livestreams at 10 a.m. PT on weekdays through December 23. The first day introduced ChatGPT Pro, a $200/month subscription plan, along with the full launch of its reasoning-focused O1 model. Day two showcased "Reinforcement Fine-Tuning" demos. While future announcements are still under wraps, we might see updates to the Advanced Voice Mode or a public release date for the anticipated text-to-video generator, Sora.

The event is being streamed live on OpenAI's YouTube channel, and you can follow along with all the updates on our live blog. If you miss any streams, catch up with our coverage from the earlier days of the event.

Day 3

OpenAI introduced Sora, an advanced text-to-video generation model, during its 12 Days of OpenAI event. This model enables users to generate dynamic, full-length videos from textual prompts. Sora’s strength lies in its ability to accurately interpret detailed descriptions, producing videos with multiple shots and persistent characters that reflect a consistent visual style throughout. It can generate complex scenes like snowy cityscapes, animal interactions, or even stylized animations like stop-motion or silhouette art.

Sora is particularly designed to understand narrative and emotional depth, ensuring that generated videos convey compelling stories and visuals. However, the model still faces challenges in accurately simulating physical dynamics, such as object interactions or complex motion. OpenAI is working on refining these issues and ensuring the model adheres to safety and ethical guidelines, with ongoing red teaming and tools to detect misleading content.

This marks a significant step in AI's ability to create immersive, visually rich content directly from text, pushing the boundaries of video creation tools.

These updates align with OpenAI's ongoing efforts to refine and expand its AI tools.
