Overview

• Sora 2 generates short clips with improved physical realism, better multi-shot consistency, and synchronized audio including dialogue and sound effects.
• The Sora app serves a vertical, algorithmic feed of AI-only videos capped at about 10 seconds with remix tools, with no option to upload user-shot media.
• Likeness use requires opt-in cameos verified by a liveness check; users are notified when their image appears in drafts or posts and can revoke permissions.
• Access begins by invitation on iPhone in the U.S. and Canada, with a staged expansion that includes a higher-quality Pro model, web access, and a developer API.
• OpenAI embeds visible watermarks and C2PA metadata and uses an opt-out approach for copyrighted material, with Disney among rights holders opting out as legal scrutiny continues.
