Generative video is getting better with OpenAI’s Sora. Impressive and uncanny af. 🫠

The video above shows an older woman smiling with a birthday cake in front of her, surrounded by people who are celebrating. But, some things are off. Hands melt together, candles have double and triple flames, and an overall eerie vibe lingers over the scene.

@sod That Sora AI video is right at the bottom of the uncanny canyon! Can’t wait for them to make it three times as uncanny!

@sod How long before we see a video of a doddering Joe Biden or a raging Donald Trump that never really happened?

@Mtt Sorry, no, that's a video quote from the linked article.

@sod Like a dream scene in a David Lynch movie.

@sven Exclude closeups of humans and it looks even more impressive.

@sod Reminds me of something out of Soundgarden's video for "Black Hole Sun", just waiting for the faces to melt. Lynch has also been mentioned here, totally agree.
