OpenAI’s latest Sora video is a mind-blowing FPV drone ride promoting TED Talks |
ChatGPT maker continues to offer astonishing examples of what its AI-powered text-to-video tool can do
|
Microsoft-backed OpenAI took the world by storm in 2023 with its AI-powered ChatGPT chatbot. Later this year, it could do the same again with the public launch of its text-to-video tool, Sora. It’s true that other companies are already developing similarly impressive technology, but the sample videos that OpenAI has been dropping since it unveiled Sora in February have been jaw-dropping. The latest Sora-generated video is a remarkable first-person view (FPV) drone-style sequence that shows “what TED Talks might look like in 40 years,” according to OpenAI. TED Talks worked with OpenAI and the filmmaker Paul Trillo to create the 90-second video, which, don’t forget, was created entirely by AI ... |

|
High-end phones at a nicer price — what's not to like? |
If you’re after a premium phone, but don’t want to fork over top dollar, then you can always buy a used device. For an even better deal, and more peace of mind, a refurbished handset direct from the maker is another possibility. Samsung, for example, has just added the Galaxy S23 series to its Certified Re-Newed program, Android Police reported. Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S23 series at its Galaxy Unpacked event last year, and the range was quickly praised for its elegant design, ultrafast processor, and a seamless Android experience. The deals will save you a chunk of cash and also offer a decent trade-in value and a one-year warranty ... |

The Vision Pro is already in trouble. Here’s how Apple can turn the tide
|
Apple's mixed-reality headset was its biggest device launch in years, but it hasn't taken off in a major way |
The hype around Apple’s Vision Pro headset has dissipated since its launch, and there are now reports that customers aren’t buying it in high numbers. Prominent Apple tipster Mark Gurman claimed recently that “sales — at least at some locations — have gone from a couple of units a day to just a handful in a whole week.” Data suggests that app submissions have also tanked. This has the potential to turn into “a vicious cycle for the headset, with consumers staying away due to a lack of apps and developers being discouraged by the lack of app users,” Digital Trends reported. But there are ways that Apple can turn the situation around ... |

Jerry Seinfeld says the ‘movie business is over’ |
Ahead of the release of his directorial debut, the legendary comic has been making his feelings known about the movie industry
|
Jerry Seinfeld’s first stab at movie directing is a comedy called Unfrosted, a fictional account of the creation of Pop-Tarts toaster pastries. In a recent interview with GQ magazine, Seinfeld discussed how it felt to take a prominent role behind the camera so late in his career. At one point, he said the “movie business is over,” claiming that “film doesn’t occupy the pinnacle in the social, cultural hierarchy that it did for most of our lives. When a movie came out, if it was good, we all went to see it. We all discussed it. We quoted lines and scenes we liked," adding that "disorientation" has replaced the business ... |
