Listen Later

In this special hands-on episode, Corey Noles and Grant Harvey dive into OpenAI's Sora 2 - the AI video platform that's part TikTok, part meme generator, and 100% chaos. Watch as they navigate the new social media-style interface, create ridiculous videos featuring Sam Altman at a Berlin techno rave filled with clowns, and discover why Sam has become the "Tom from MySpace" of AI-generated content.The hosts explore Sora 2's key features including the viral "cameo" system that lets you loan your likeness to other creators, the remix functionality, and the surprisingly robust prompt editing capabilities. They demonstrate the platform's strengths (incredibly fast generation, social features, creative possibilities) and weaknesses (no timeline editor for scrubbing through footage, occasional voice mismatches, server delays during peak times).Key takeaways include practical prompting tips for better results, how to set up and optimize your cameo preferences, and why being descriptive in your prompts makes all the difference. Grant and Corey also discuss the broader implications: Is this OpenAI's answer to TikTok? How does this fit into the AI landscape where every major player now has a social platform? And most importantly - why is everyone making Sam Altman breakdance?Whether you're AI-curious or a seasoned prompt engineer, you'll learn how to navigate Sora 2's interface, avoid common pitfalls, and maybe even create your own viral AI video. Plus, find out why Corey's "realistic physique was not okay on Sora" and had to optimize his cameo settings with ChatGPT's help.➤ CHAPTERSTimecode - Chapter Title0:00 - Introduction: What is Sora 21:03 - Sam Altman is the Tom from MySpace of AI1:57 - Mobile App Tour & Social Features3:42 - Remix Feature: Editing Sam's Bedtime4:12 - The Secret to Better Prompting6:40 - Profile Features & Your Drafts8:44 - Understanding Cameos10:40 - How to Set Up Your Cameo13:00 - Optimizing Cameo Preferences with ChatGPT15:05 - Live Demo of Creating A Video18:25 - Using the Edit Feature20:09 - First Video Results23:32 - Fixing a Bad Video26:49 - Finding & Following People30:33 - Exploring Trending Videos32:50 - Why OpenAI Built a Social Platform35:34 - Training Data Implications38:00 - Voice Input and Pro Prompting Tips40:02 - The First AI-Native Social Media45:43 - Final ThoughtResources: - Sora 2 launch: https://openai.com/index/sora-2/- Download the app https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sora-by-openai/id6744034028- Sora app on the web: https://sora.chatgpt.com/exploreP.S: First comment gets an invite code.
