OpenAI's AI video generation tool Sora has recently announced its new roadmap, revealing a series of major feature updates that cover creation tools, social experiences, performance optimization, and platform expansion, further promoting the openness and diversity of AI video creation.

Comprehensive Upgrade of Creation Tools: Guest Starring and Basic Editing Features

Sora is about to launch the highly anticipated "Guest Starring" feature. Within the next few days, users will be able to have their pets (such as dogs, hamsters), plush toys, or any object "star" in videos, and even extract characters from existing Sora videos for guest appearances.

To enhance the interactive experience, the application will also update the generation interface, displaying the most popular guest starring characters in real time, making the creation process more inspiring and fun.

At the same time, Sora will also introduce basic video editing tools, allowing users to splice multiple video clips. In the future, more powerful editing and cutting features will be added, making the creative process more flexible and complete.

Enhanced Social Experience: Private Channels and Community Interaction

Sora is exploring a new mode of social interaction and plans to introduce private and community channels features, allowing users not only to communicate with creators around the world but also to set up exclusive channels within universities, companies, or sports clubs, promoting the community development of AI creation.

User Experience Optimization: Reducing Review and Improving Performance

In response to user feedback, the Sora team stated that they will reduce excessive review of generated content to reduce the sense of restriction during use. At the same time, the overall performance of the application is continuously being optimized to ensure a smooth experience on different devices.

Additionally, the Feed stream function of Sora has been recently optimized and updated, and it will continue to be improved in the future to enhance the accuracy and playability of content recommendations.

Platform Expansion: Android Version Soon to Launch

In terms of platform expansion, the Sora team confirmed that the Android version is about to be released
