I don't think people know that making plausible fake videos is now something that doesn't require a lot of skill or time I made this Veo video of a man trying out a flying skateboard at CES from a text prompt, 2nd try. Notice the shadows, green light, his body shifts for balance

thank you to the external safety researchers who tested o3-mini. we have now finalized a version and are beginning the release process; planning to ship in ~a couple of weeks. also, we heard the feedback: will launch api and chatgpt at the same time! (it's very good.)
