A few days ago, OpenAI unveiled its brand-new, groundbreaking artificial intelligence tool, Sora. This AI video generator is making waves in the digital community with its realistic, and high-quality videos. Although Sora is not accessible to the general public, the people who do have access to this tool have been singing its praises.
AI text-to-video generators have existed for a while now, however, none of them have been as impressive as Sora. These tools offer exciting possibilities for marketers, educators, and storytellers alike. But with numerous contenders vying for attention, choosing the right AI tool can prove to be a bit challenging.
This article will look into the differences between OpenAI’s Sora and other text-to-video tools, such as the user-friendly Canva.
