Sora for Android Blows Up — Half a Bloody Million Installs on Day One

Well, hold on to your overpriced smartphones, because apparently everyone and their dog decided to download OpenAI’s new toy, Sora for Android, the moment it hit the Play Store. Yeah, nearly half a f***ing million installs in a single day. Half. A. Million. Christ on a motherboard, people, do you all just auto-click “install” when you see “AI” in the title now?

So here’s the gist before I choke on the hype fumes: OpenAI shoved this Sora thing onto Android, and everyone collectively lost their digital minds. Sora — this text-to-video, world-bending, reality-blurring AI — is apparently making everyone think they’re bloody Spielberg now. The app integrations are smoother than a marketing exec’s haircut, and the user base exploded faster than a cheap power supply in a humid data center.

Apparently, the app ties slickly into ChatGPT and DALL·E crap too, so users can create videos, edit clips, and probably generate nonsense until their phone battery gives up in protest. The fanboys call it “revolutionary.” I call it “the next shiny hellscape flooding the internet with deepfake cat videos.” Bravo, humanity. You’ve outdone yourselves again.

And as always, some smartass at OpenAI is already patting themselves on the back while plotting the next “productivity-enhancing” feature that’ll drain your privacy faster than I can say, “who needs a camera when you’ve got an AI hallucination factory?”

Reminds me of the time I released a new ticketing system at work — 400 users signed in at once, crashed the database, and blamed me. This? Same energy, just with more install buttons and fewer idiots I can yell at directly.
