OpenAI Limits Sora Access After Higher-Than-Expected Demand

From PC Mag: OpenAI's systems failed to handle the "unexpected demand" for Sora following its debut, says CEO Sam Altman. The company temporarily disabled the ability for new users to sign up, so it's likely many ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers do not yet have access.

"It is going to take awhile to get everyone access," Altman says. "Trying to figure out how to do it as fast as possible!"

For those who managed to get access, video generation may be slower than expected.

With a $20-per-month Plus account, you can generate videos up to 20 seconds long, capped at 50 per month at a lower resolution (480p) or "fewer" than 50 videos at a higher resolution (720p), OpenAI says. With a $200-per-month Pro plan, you can create more and longer videos at the highest resolution (1080p).
