Sora was a video platform formatted like TikTok where people could share their generated videos and swipe through others. The video generation was controversial from the get-go, as users could easily generate videos of copyrighted characters in compromising situations.
The platform saw a big burst in interest that immediately waned after legal action forced those copyrighted characters to get pulled. The Sora app launchd in late 2024 and will soon be shuttered.
