About this listen

 The OpenAI Sora 2 team (Bill Peebles, Thomas Dimson, Rohan Sahai) discuss how they compressed filmmaking from months to days, enabling anyone to create compelling video. Bill, who invented the diffusion transformer that powers Sora and most video generation models, explains how space-time tokens enable object permanence and physics understanding in AI-generated video, and why Sora 2 represents a leap for video. Thomas and Rohan share how they're intentionally designing the Sora product against mindless scrolling, optimizing for creative inspiration, and building the infrastructure for IP holders to participate in a new creator economy. The conversation goes beyond video generation into the team’s vision for world simulators that could one day run scientific experiments, their perspective on co-evolving society alongside technology, and how digital simulations in alternate realities may become the future of knowledge work. Hosted by: Konstantine Buhler and Sonya Huang, Sequoia Capital
