I haven't seen any numbers on how much Sora cost to train, nor how much it costs to run- I can't help but believe it's painfully high.
last references I saw were that chatgpt et al were $1m/day, and those numbers were pre-sora.
I wish I could cheer for it unambiguously ("yes! burn that money! go ahead! make yourself poorer! woooooo!") but unfortunately the fucking side effects still exist too -_-
Fucking giant water and power guzzling data centers, ugh.
