Sora 2 and the Brainrot Rebellion

On this episode, NLW goes deep on OpenAI’s release of Sora 2—its next-generation video generation model—and the launch of the new Sora social app, which some are calling an AI-powered TikTok. Is this the beginning of a Cambrian explosion of creativity, or just the next wave of AI brain rot? The show explores what makes Sora 2 different, how the cameo feature could reshape social media, the early cultural backlash, and what this moment says about society’s growing rebellion against attention-draining digital platforms.
