OpenAI is said to be launching a TikTok-like app that recommends an endless stream of swipeable \u2014 and purely AI-generated \u2014 short-form videos.<\/p>\n

As Wired<\/em> reports<\/a>, the company is expected to launch the stand-alone app alongside its Sora 2 text-to-video AI-generation tool.<\/p>\n

The app will consist of a personalized video feed that closely resembles TikTok\u2019s For You page, according to documents viewed by the magazine.<\/p>\n

The focus will exclusively be on AI-generated content, as users won\u2019t be able to share any photos or videos from their camera rolls or other apps. Interestingly, though, they\u2019ll be able to use their own likeness to inspire AI videos and tag each other.<\/p>\n

In other words, it sounds like a deepfake generator on steroids. At least users will be notified if their likeness gets used, per Wired<\/em>.<\/p>\n

And while it may sound like an endless supply of uninspired AI slop that nobody asked for \u2014 we\u2019re certainly contending with enough of the stuff<\/a> on the internet as it is \u2014 sources told Wired<\/em> that the app \u201creceived overwhelmingly positive feedback from employees\u201d during internal testing.<\/p>\n

It came to the point where managers at OpenAI were reportedly joking that the app would turn into too much of a distraction for employees.<\/p>\n

It remains unclear when OpenAI will unveil Sora 2. The company released Sora<\/a>, its first text-to-video model, in December 2024, integrating it into ChatGPT.<\/p>\n

Since then, a number of the firm\u2019s competitors, including Meta and Google, have released their own alternatives. Earlier this year, Google released Veo 3, a powerful new model that can create impressive photorealistic video clips<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A TikTok-like Sora experience also wouldn\u2019t be the first app dedicated exclusively to sharing AI slop. Just last week, Meta announced<\/a> an app called Vibes, a \u201cnew feed of AI videos at the center of the Meta AI app.\u201d<\/p>\n

The app was met with \u201cnear-unanimous ridicule and even dismay,\u201d as SFGate<\/em> reported<\/a> <\/strong>last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone else has already weighed in,\u201d Bloomberg<\/em> podcast host Joe Weisenthal tweeted<\/a>. \u201cBut I too feel compelled to say that this all looks like pure garbage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Google is also integrating<\/a> a version of Veo 3 into YouTube Shorts, so it\u2019s clear that all the major AI players are moving toward the same idea.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re wondering how OpenAI\u2019s attempts to launch an AI video app will avoid devolving into a cesspool of disinformation<\/a> and unsolicited deepfakes<\/a>, you\u2019re not alone.<\/p>\n

TikTok has had to update its policies<\/a> to ensure that its users are \u201chaving authentic experiences,\u201d forbidding \u201cmisinformation that could cause significant harm to individuals or society, no matter the intent of the person posting it,\u201d and specifically calling out \u201cAIGC,\u201d or AI-generated content.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven with labels, some edited or AI-generated content can still be harmful,\u201d TikTok\u2019s community guidelines read.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the tendency of video and image generators to violate copyright<\/a>, which has already led to<\/a> high-profile lawsuits<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How OpenAI will address these issues with a TikTok competitor remains to be seen. Given the amount of scrutiny the firm is already under, especially when it comes to underage users<\/a> who are engaging in alarming conversations<\/a> with ChatGPT, OpenAI will likely be treading carefully.<\/p>\n
