Not artisan, but a perfectly fine bagel. Hits the spot.
Summary
OpenAI has introduced new features to its Sora 2 video generator, including reusable 'character cameos' that allow users to create AI avatars from almost any subject (people, pets, illustrations) for use in AI-generated videos. The update also adds clip stitching capabilities and leaderboards showcasing popular videos and cameos. These features build on existing deepfake functionality that previously only allowed users to create AI versions of themselves.
