😱 OpenAI’s Sora Video Model Leaked

A controversial reveal sparks intrigue and debate.

A protest group calling themselves “Sora PR Puppets” shook the AI world by leaking OpenAI's unreleased Sora video model on Hugging Face. The leak offered a tantalizing glimpse into OpenAI’s behind-the-scenes work while exposing tensions between creators and the company’s practices.

The Details

• The group alleged OpenAI leveraged unpaid contributions from hundreds of artists for testing while retaining strict control over generated content.

• The leak, which stayed live for several hours, showcased OpenAI’s watermark on 1080p 10-second video clips—rendered faster than the rumored 10-minute processing time.

• OpenAI has been rumored to work on new features like in-painting and image generation to tackle long rendering delays.

Why It Matters

With AI video tools gaining ground, this leak highlights OpenAI’s guarded approach and dependence on creatives. While the Sora model impressed, it didn’t outpace rivals—a key point in an increasingly competitive market.
