This video is AI. In fact, every video in this thread is AI. And this is a moment that will permanently change YouTube, and the world, forever.

These have been generated by OpenAI’s brand new text-to-video generator. It’s called 'Sora’, which means 'sky' in Japanese. 
AI gets a lot of unnecessary hype, but… We’ve never seen anything like this before, because from a technical perspective, this is truly remarkable. 
Will it be good? Will it be bad? How will creators use it? How will audiences react to it? And why is it different? 

It is vital to capture the context of this right, because it stands at the intersection of multiple different industries. 

 Fortunately, I’ve been this weird hybrid of a person for a while. I’m a doctor + YouTuber + YouTube strategist who’s worked on several multi-million view YouTube videos + someone who codes with AI + has worked with 3D modelling software. So I woke up today in a rather unique position today to cover the implications of Sora - for creators, the creator economy, and for viewers. So: what does Sora mean - for YouTube creators, viewers, and the world? 

And again: EVERY video below is generated by OpenAI. Keep that in mind. Prompts will be included below the fold for each tweet. 🧵/ 28 (Prompt: Extreme close up of a 24 year old woman’s eye blinking, standing in Marrakech during magic hour, cinematic film shot in 70mm, depth of field, vivid colors, cinematic)
