OpenAI近日发布了其新一代AI视频和音频生成应用Sora，允许用户上传自己的面部和声音，并将其植入AI生成的视频中。CEO Sam Altman是首批体验者之一，并分享了其AI形象在各种趣味场景中的视频，例如在Target商店“盗窃”GPU、在日本吉卜力工作室“盗窃”艺术品、以2000年代说唱歌手的风格谈论OpenAI的成功、与恐龙一同冒险，以及出现在《南方公园》的动画场景中。该应用因其强大的拟真能力和创作自由度引发关注，但也带来了关于AI肖像权和潜在滥用的讨论。

The star of OpenAI's new Sora app is none other than CEO Sam Altman.
OpenAI launched Sora, its new AI-powered video and audio generation app, on Tuesday to much fanfare. The app is invite-only for now, leading some people to sell invite codes for just under $45 on eBay. Even Business Insider reporters lauded the app as entertaining and fun.
It's also worrisome to some, however, for its ability to include AI versions of real people.Users can scan their faces and their voices to add themselves to videos. You can also add friends who have made their own AI avatars.
Altman and some other OpenAI staff were the first to create and share their AI likeness. Since Sora's release, users have wasted no time making Altman a main character in their short-form videos.
"it is way less strange to watch a feed full of memes of yourself than i thought it would be," Altman said on X on Wednesday. "not sure what to make of this."
Here are a few ways Altman has taken center stage on the Sora app.
Stealing GPUs at Target.

OpenAI research scientist Gabriel Petersson helped kick off the fun on Tuesday by sharing an AI video he created with Sora on X. The AI video, mimicking CCTV footage, shows Altman stealing GPUs at a Target store before security caught him.
"Please, I really need this for Sora inference," the AI-powered Altman said in the video.

Lmao, Sam Altman stealing art from Miyazaki in the Studio Ghibli HQ.
Earlier this year, OpenAI unveiled an image generator through ChatGPT, which many people used to generate images based on the animation style popularized by Studio Ghibli. At the time, the trend faced pushback from some who were concerned that it violated copyright laws and exploited artists' work.
In the AI video, an AI Altman steals art from Studio Ghibli cofounder Hayao Miyazaki at the company's headquarters in Japan. The video shows Miyazaki running after Altman in an attempt to retrieve his artwork.
"Sora 2 is wilddddddd," the user wrote.

One X user used Sora to make an AI video of Altman wearing an outfit inspired by 2000s hip-hop and rapping about his company's success.
"Sora got the screams and the crowd enjoys/What happened to that boy? Brrrr," the AI Altman said in the video on Wednesday. "Every rival burning cash/Chasing a decoy/What happened to that boy? Brrrr."

Petersson shared a Sora 2 promotional video on Tuesday that featured AI versions of him and Altman in absurd situations.
In one scene, Petersson drives a yellow Lamborghini before appearing on a dragon's back in the next. At one point, Petersson and Altman make it to "imagination land," complete with cherry blossom trees and dinosaurs.
"feature you and your friends with raw real world physics, putting an end to the uncanny ai vibes," Petersson wrote in the post.
On Wednesday, an X user used Sora 2 to create an AI video featuring AI Altman alongside Eric Cartman and Kenny McCormick of "South Park." Cartman and Altman team up in the video to pull a prank on Kenny.
"Sam Altman is the 'Ghibli' moment for Sora 2," the user wrote.
Petersson shared another Sora 2-generated video featuring Altman to his X account on Tuesday. The video showed AI Altman wearing black wireless headphones and walking onto a train station platform. He then begins snapping his fingers, inspiring the crowd to dance and snap their fingers as well.
