Sora is a newly launched AI tool that allows users to generate videos using text prompts and images. It is available to users with a paid ChatGPT plan, either Plus or Pro, with the Pro plan offering unlimited usage. The tool provides a variety of features, including a feed for inspiration, preset style options, and a storyboard mode for detailed storytelling. Users can create videos by typing prompts, uploading images, and selecting styles and resolutions. The storyboard feature allows for detailed scene planning, making it particularly useful for filmmakers. However, the tool has strict copyright rules and limitations on uploading media with people. The video also discusses the pricing plans, emphasizing the value of the Pro plan for power users, and highlights the potential of Sora to democratize filmmaking by reducing costs and enabling more people to tell stories.
