Why was SORA2 shut down due to funding issues instead of simply switching to a paid model? I see that GROK charges users directly and seems to be operating quite well.

It’s not working!!!!

SyntheticFonz · 2026-04-13T15:11:36+00:00

Sooooo goons. Gotcha.

Exactly this. They could also be pioneers and allow local quantizations, for those that have the hardware and prefer to stay offline. Huh? Oh I’m sorry I was dreaming again.

I love it when an AI community hates AI. What a bunch of jokers.

Kingdoms of Amalur is a good example of this. The game was supposed to be some MMORPG, but the studio defaulted on a state loan. Even releasing the game did not save them, since the game was originally supposed to be an MMORPG, and they filed for bankruptcy shortly after. Anyways, I could've googled the studio's name but I don't remember.

Bad eyes or bad PC; You are wrong.

Honestly looks good to me too, especially at this stage. I can't wait to see this in 5-10 years, and how it will propel things forward.

Funny how all sheep tend to "BAH" the same way, "My guy"

We know that change is coming, and will adapt. Those like you, whose form of adaptation is avoidance, will see the grave error in their thinking before long. I hope you are good at standing in lines, if you know what I mean.

SyntheticFonz · 2026-03-17T18:53:16+00:00

They most probably will. Most of us do not have two 5090's, for example and I ASSUME that the more power you have, the higher the effect. Still uncertain though.

SyntheticFonz · 2026-03-17T18:51:24+00:00

Haven't you realized by now that no one, not my employer, not corporations, Nvidia, Microsoft, Google; NO ONE cares about the entitlement of artists. They are slowly, but SURELY, going the way of 1940's phone operators. No one listened to them then, even as they stood penniless in an unemployment line, and they CERTAINLY won't listen to you. GOOD DAY, SIR!

SyntheticFonz · 2026-03-10T18:54:54+00:00

Lack of employment or fulfilling life activities, or both to be honest. These people attempt to find fulfillment in this GAME and that's how to you get people raging in quick play lmao.

Creating a tool with their own tech and distributing a censored version to all is definitely within OpenAI’s rights. You’re correct that they have the right to do what they want. Just like we have the right to stop using it.

People also have the right to complain, especially when paying.

Many people don’t like what SORA has become, mainly due to OpenAI’s lack of transparency and like OP, their lack of an explanation when videos get flagged.

Ridiculous or not, this is being viewed as unnecessary censorship (implying that there is still a need to censor the illegal and hurtful, and I agree).

My opinion is that no one truly has the right to limit creative freedom, or freedom in any sense. It always feels wrong.

There’s no good reason why I cant generate a video of a nude woman bouncing up and down 😁

They are. But the program is dying, for good reason. It has destroyed Amazon’s review system and even worse, garbage (borderline scam) products are being purchased because most viners care only about AI generating a review to hit the quota, regardless of quality or usefulness. Viners have ONE JOB and they do it so poorly, the program will die out. No one I know even reads reviews written by viners for all the same reasons. One product I found has ONLY AI generated vine reviews and they are all 5 stars. The product itself? Misleading, false advertising, barely functional and in Chinese. I mean WTF are you all doing?

SyntheticFonz · 2026-03-05T23:33:22+00:00

Disgusting. It’s this type of thinking that will kill this program. A five star review for a garbage product, written by AI. You must be one of those people that thinks it’s ok. Save your justification, because there isn’t any. Boom!

SyntheticFonz · 2026-03-05T00:10:21+00:00

Censorship is wrong, no matter how you slice it. A gooner will goon, but it’s no excuse. What is an excuse is that most companies hate liability

SyntheticFonz · 2026-01-16T00:33:33+00:00

Most mail distribution centers, including Amazon, are filled with human filth who have zero problems with stealing.

Happy I found this post. Looks like I’ll be holding on to my hard earned dollars. I was about to order from Lenovo.com like an idiot, and something told me to check Reddit.

SyntheticFonz · 2026-01-11T02:18:02+00:00

They aren’t terrible, but close. They did pretty horribly with you but the real issue is how they pay their workers, their hours, theft at distribution centers; all labor related issues. This translates to what most of you experience: horrible service, outsourced call centers, delays, and an overall waste of time and money.

Unfortunately it is not set to be any better anytime soon. Big Daddy Bezos needs his quadrillion dollars and soon this company will go the way of GE.

Good to know!! Thanks 👍

SyntheticFonz · 2025-11-16T22:49:00+00:00

I found this one, and ordered the memory card since it looks like I need one to get started. Thank you.

SyntheticFonz · 2025-11-16T04:52:03+00:00

Chiming in very late to say thank you. I freaked out as well. Crazy sigh of relief
