Peebles: Sora will evolve into interactive world simulators with autonomous humans
“And so looking forward, as we continue to scale up models like Sora, we think we're going to be able to build these, like, world simulators, where essentially, you know, anybody can interact with them. I, as a human, can have my own simulator running, and I ca…”

Peebles: Sora is the only video model reliably handling complex physics
“This model is a huge leap forward in terms of physics IQ. So pretty much all past video generation models really struggled with prompts that, you know, involve like backflips, gymnastics routines, et cetera. And this is really the only model that exists today,…”

Peebles: Video AI progressed from GPT-1 to GPT-3.5 equivalent in 18 months
“GPT-ONE really was Sora-ONE for this modality. And the progress we've made kind of in the last 18 months getting to this 3.5 moment, right, is really compressed compared to how long it took to go from GPT-ONE to 3.5 in the language domain.”
