    Good collection of AI-generated videos and images of the Iraq war:

      Unfortunate, that every picture, video, etc. we have to now question if it is real or not.

        OpenAI has shut down Sora, its video generation service.

        Since the platform's launch, Sora made $1.4m in global net in-app revenues, compared to $1.9bn over the same period for ChatGPT, ...

        ... it was "a resource black hole" with "limited monetisation".

        "The platform struggled to prevent the creation of non-consensual imagery and realistic misinformation, not to mention major copyright infringement," ...

            Just finished "watching" this AI-generated video:

            Link to video

            If nothing else, it shows how advanced China's video generation AI is. Quite likely this is not their most advanced offering because the producer of this video appears to be a small business unlikely to have the deep pocket necessary to use the latest and greatest generative AI technology.

              @Axtremus Getting better and better everyday. Almost have to question every photo and video now as to the question "is it real?"

                              Yeap, I figured it would be "read-only."
                              Question is who enforces that "read-only" restriction -- is it your banks/brokerages, Plaid the middle layer, or ChatGPT's self-policing? How comfortable one feels about using the new feature may depend on this.

                                @Axtremus they can learn. It’s not that tough.

                                If they can’t learn it they likely have little chance of success at managing their own accounts.

                                      Does AI have fiduciary duties like an investment counselor? Good luck suing the AI company for bad advice.

                                        Okay. Explain like I am a little kid. I have seen that term "vibe code" before. Is it a specific computer language or something different from other coding?

                                          If you're on your computer, you open up a window (like powershell) but think of it like a google prompt and you can just talk to it about what you want it to build. It builds it and then you can ask for changes. There's like 5-10 min to set it up and an account, but even at the start of it you can say "pretend I've never coded before and I'm in 7th grade" and it'll reply to you accordingly.

                                          TLDR: You can just type or talk to a prompt and it'll build you a functional software product like a website.
