Key Highlights

  • The group created a public frontend for Sora on Hugging Face, allowing anyone to generate videos using leaked authentication tokens.
  • They allege OpenAI pressures testers to praise Sora without pay and limits which Sora-generated videos are publicly shared.
  • The group claims the early access program prioritizes PR over creative expression and artist support.
