Short answer: Jordan Metzner says Sora videos are most interesting when you are the star. Clips run eight or nine seconds now, but he expects 20 to 40 seconds soon and flaws in physics and continuity to fade.

From Episode 15: Sora 2 Took Over AI Video + Our New Parking Data Tool, starting at 17:50.
Jordan Metzner [17:49]: Yeah. I mean, I think overall, my final thoughts on Sora two is, obviously, it's incredibly fun. Every time one of these new models comes out, whether it's been like images or video, it's really fun to play with it for a few days. I think already I've noticed, the videos are interesting because you're the star of it and less interesting when you're not the star of it. But, the ability to have your imagination run wild of, putting you inside a shark tank with, inside an ocean with sharks or, you know, on top of an elephant or in a farm or in a professional hockey game or, basketball game, fishing, skydiving. I mean, here I am dunking in a basketball game. So, yeah, I just thought, it's an incredible way to really drive up creativity and put yourself in positions that you wouldn't you know, in activities that you wouldn't normally doing. And, I think this is the beginning of, the ability to create con continuous content kind of using the same character throughout and really tell a story. And, while these videos are only eight, nine seconds, I think, very quickly, we'll start to see twenty, thirty, forty seconds videos. And even in these videos, see they have multiple cuts.
Jordan Metzner [18:59]: They're very creative. And, yeah, it just seems like the really early days. I know NVIDIA's launching a new video generation chip that doesn't even come out until about June. So I know this is just the early days. We find some areas here where physics or continuity or the image kind of drops, and I think we'll we'll see those things start to go away. And then, these videos will become, hyper realistic to the point that you won't be able to tell what's real and what's been generated.
