Cameo, the startup known for personalized celebrity videos, filed a lawsuit Tuesday against OpenAI, accusing the ChatGPT maker of trademark infringement over its new "Cameo" feature in the Sora video-generation app. In a complaint filed in the federal court of the Northern District of California on Tuesday, Cameo said OpenAI's use of the "Cameo" name, which describes a virtual likeness that users can create and share on Sora, is likely to confuse consumers and dilute its brand.

OpenAI's Sora app will now let you turn almost anything into a reusable avatar for its AI-generated videos. These " character cameos " are one of several new features that have been added to the Sora 2 video generator, alongside clip stitching and leaderboards that showcase the app's most popular videos and cameos. Character cameos were teased last week, and build on the existing feature that allows Sora users to create AI deepfakes of themselves that can be used by everyone else on the platform, if permitted.

We have been quite amazed by how much our power users want to use Sora, and the economics are currently completely unsustainable. We thought 30 free gens/day would be more than enough, but clearly we were wrong!

After OpenAI's video-generating app Sora surged to the No. 1 position on the U.S. App Store, it has now, technically, experienced a bigger first week than ChatGPT on iOS, according to new data from app intelligence provider Appfigures. Its estimates show that Sora saw 627,000 iOS downloads in its first seven days of availability, compared with ChatGPT's 606,000 iOS downloads during its first week.

OpenAI's new short-form video app, Sora, seems to have all the ingredients of a viral hit. Just hours after the app's launch on Tuesday, memes created using its AI video-generation technology were already spreading to other social networks-including, for example, a video of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman rapping from the inside of a toilet bowl. Sora's launch-complete with a TikTok style "for you" page-was something of an about-face for Altman,

In a video on OpenAI's new TikTok-like social media app Sora, a never-ending factory farm of pink pigs are grunting and snorting in their pens - each is equipped with a feeding trough and a smartphone screen, which plays a feed of vertical videos. A terrifyingly realistic Sam Altman stares directly at the camera, as though he's making direct eye contact with the viewer. The AI-generated Altman asks, "Are my piggies enjoying their slop?"
