OpenAI’s Sora video-generating model can render video games, too
OpenAI's new video-generating model, Sora, can render virtual worlds, too, according to the accompanying technical paper.
In an experiment, OpenAI set Sora loose on Minecraft and had it render the world — and its dynamics, including physics — while simultaneously controlling the player. “These capabilities suggest that continued scaling of video models is a promising path towards the development of highly-capable simulators of the physical and digital world, and the objects, animals and people that live within them,” the coauthors write. That’s in equal parts exciting and terrifying (consider the deepfake implications, for one) — which is probably why OpenAI’s choosing to gate Sora behind a very limited access program for now.
