Sora 2 marked another "Jagged AGI Moment" for me this year. I spent several nights last week experimenting with it—the first time I've considered a video generation model truly usable.

The engagement metrics are striking. In an interview, Sam Altman revealed that over 30% of Sora's active users are creators—a dramatic shift from the typical 90/9/1 rule:

  • 90% of users consume content
  • 9% edit or distribute content
  • 1% create original content

As Altman explained: "We hoped that if we could bring the activation energy of creating down dramatically, a lot more people would do it than normally create. I haven't looked at the numbers in a few days, but in the first few days it was like 30-something percent of active users were active creators. It was just incredible."

The only issue for me was my imagination. 😂
