LTS for anything around LLM lasts about 3 months these days, so not really surprising.

Honestly, it's shocking Sora was around for how long it was. Remember Dall-e before it got consumed by ChatGPT?

It made cute videos of my cat dancing. I showed them to my cat, but he wasn’t impressed. Alas, they were all in Sora, and now I cannot login. So the cute cat videos are forever lost.

And it burned money like no tomorrow with no real revenue generation. Now that it’s past the initial hype and not getting them in the news cycle it’s just a waste of money.

I'd make a vet appointment if anything impressed a cat.

Hmm ... so are we, possibly, in a bubble?

Perhaps, but, they can’t make any money on it.
