OpenAI's Sora Is Generating Videos of Real People, Including This Unintentionally Demonic Version of Pokimane

Quick Summary:

OpenAI has long refused to say whether or not its Sora video generator was trained on existing content — but its propensity for generating videos that look a whole lot like real gaming streamers suggests it did.

When TechCrunch put Sora to the test, its reporters found not only that it could generate videos that were strikingly similar to real-life gameplay of "Super Mario Bros".and "Call of Duty," but also spat out what appeared very much to look like the streamers Auronplay and Pokimane.

Viewed in profile, the woman in the screenshot looks at a screen in front of her while wearing light-up over-ear headphones and a giant, creepy grin that would be at home in the "Smile" horror franchise.
