Sora and Vibes are making it easier than ever to make AI-generated videos. You may already be familiar with low-budget ‘AI slop’ which is creeping into TikTok and Instagram. Things like Will Smith eating spaghetti, dogs riding motorbikes, or the late Queen Elizabeth rapping. Or, maybe you enjoy POV videos - and imagining you’re an angel waking up in heaven, or the Pope in the Vatican. Now Sora, from the owners of ChatGPT, and Vibes, from Meta, are promising to take AI-generated video content to the next level. They both launched in September.
So, is the internet about to change forever? How can we tell what’s real and what’s not? Is this a new age of misinformation? And should we be worried that President Donald Trump is sharing lots of these videos? The BBC’s Jacqui Wakefield joins us to share all. Plus, we hear from two students about why they love or hate AI-generated content.
