OpenAI shocked the digital world by unveiling Sora, a generative text-to-video model that synthesized highly continuous, complex 60-second cinematic clips from simple written prompts. By treating video frames as spacetime patches and training a diffusion-transformer (DiT) architecture, Sora demonstrated a deep, emergent understanding of physical world dynamics, shadows, and camera movements, completely resetting the timeline for automated media production.
