I need to talk about Sora 2. It’s OpenAI’s new video generation app that’s both mind-blowing and scary.
It’s the first tool from any AI company that allows you to provide a warning and literally within seconds you get a full AI-generated video up to a minute long.
The results are not perfect, but they are close. Like Hollywood close by.

The lighting, the camera movement, the facial expressions. …It’s all shockingly realistic.

Want to see a golden retriever surfing through Times Square in slow motion? Done. A drone photo of a city being built from clouds? Easy.
Dead celebrities
People are using Sora 2 to generate fake videos of dead celebrities doing things they never did.
- JFK is transformed into a WWE superstar.
- Tupac appears with Mr. Rogers talking about respect.
- Stephen Hawking is attacked in the UFC. Warning: I knew this was all AI, but it was still disturbing to watch. Strange, right?
- Until Sam AltmanCEO of OpenAI, is stealing GPUs from Target.
SEN SANDERS: AI SHOULD BENEFIT EVERYONE, NOT JUST A FEW BILLIONAIRES
I’m sure you know that under US law, “slandering” someone only applies to living people, not dead people. This means families and estates have no legal recourse when someone uses AI to humiliate or misrepresent their loved one. It’s a free-for-all now and no one is responsible.
Even scarier?

Sora is also being used for stalking and impersonation. All it takes is one photo and you can make a video of anyone doing anything. Fake crimes, revenge content, political lies. Everything is possible.
Zero guardrails

OpenAI says you need permission to use a person’s face or voice. Yes, as if that would stop anyone.
If the guy who runs OpenAI can’t stop his own face from being misused, what chance do the rest of us have?
Right now, you can only get Sora 2 as an iPhone app. You’ll need an OpenAI account, and it’s still invite-only, so most people don’t have access yet.

Sora 2 is an incredible tool. But it is being abused and the guardrails are flimsy at best. So from now on, when a video goes viral, you better assume it’s fake until it’s proven to be real.
