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.”


Sora is pictures or movie (visual) in arabic!


Hear me out: Someone on the team is a fan of Yosuga No Sora


I'm not the only one ;)


I’m confused as well because "sora" means "sister" in Neapolitan.


I'm glad I'm not the only to have think of that, it's usually used for insults. I thought it was kinda funny.


Obviously for it's meaning in Finnish, "gravel".


That's because it means AI Model in Wiltordian.


"Scene-Oriented Rank Adaptation"?

I have no idea, just guessing...


It also means up/upstairs in some dialect
