|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | HIGH | Bill Peebles (Head of the Sora team) | OpenAI | 06:36 | 01-ai-native-landscape | We really kind of operated from first principles, right? So we really want these models to be extremely good at physics. We want them to kind of feel intelligent in a way that I’d say like most prior video generation models don’t. |
| 2 | HIGH | Thomas Dimson (Engineering Lead) | OpenAI | 25:44 | 02-corporate-tools | Sora enables basically everybody to be a creator on this platform. And that is a very, very different environment than something like Instagram, where you have this like extreme power law of the people that are creating. |
| 3 | HIGH | Rohan Sahai (Product Lead) | OpenAI | 33:22 | 02-corporate-tools | We are currently exposing the models in the same state across API and the app. |
