I do wonder why OpenAI chose the name "Sora" for this model. AI is now going to have intersectionality with Kingdom Hearts. (Atleast you don't need a PhD to understand AI.)

Sora means sky in Japanese, their reasoning is akin to "the sky's the limit".

> The team behind the technology, including the researchers Tim Brooks and Bill Peebles, chose the name because it “evokes the idea of limitless creative potential.”
