OpenAI is set to release a new version of its flagship AI video model Sora sometime this quarter. While revolutionary at launch, Sora has since lost ground to competitors, with Google's Veo 3 now setting the gold standard for AI video generation.
I expect Sora 2 will arrive in the coming weeks, maybe months given the rapid release of GPT-5. Like GPT-4o, GPT-5 is natively multimodal, handling any input or output type (including video) while performing complex reasoning tasks similar to the "o" series models.
