The company says Sora can create realistic videos of up to 60 seconds long just from quick text 5prompts like this example of a 6mesmerizingscenic shot in big sur, California. OpenAI has not 7released this to the public just yet because the company says it 8intends to work on the 9safety issues behind these models. Sora, however, is making some tech experts concerned.
Our Michael Holmes spoke with Christian Hammond, the director of the Center for Advancing Safety of Machine Intelligence at Northwestern University, about what this 10breathtaking tool could actually mean.
Kristian Hammond, Director, The Center for Advancing Safety of Machine Intelligence: We have to get used to the idea that all of these things we thought were part of 11establishing truth really no longer will. And we have to have an eye towards that.
CNN Anchor: Yeah OpenAI, they've 12weighed into this and they said and I'll 13quote them too they say we are working with red teamers domain experts in areas like 14misinformation 15hateful content and 16bias who will be 17adversarially testing the model. Are you 18reassured by that at all? I'm not sure I am.
Kristian Hammond: We really now have to put this not only in the hands of the technology companies, and we have to force them to work as hard as they can to make sure the content is good. We have to realize that it's up to us now.
To be able to look at the content we see and make decisions about whether or not we believe it or not. It's just that we have to start thinking less about the technology and more about how it's used. And if we're going to regulate, it's going to be regulating the use, not the technology itself, because the technology 19is here to stay.
