OpenAI kills their Sora Video generator.

Which isn't that surprising TBH:
- it is massively expensive to run
- the results were not that usable
- it was a lawsuit generator

So in order to keep the numbers looking better till their IPO at the end of this year they are starting to cut shit. Just an indicator that things are not looking good cashflow-wise.

Light Pillars and Orion over Mohe

Explanation: What's happening at the end of that street? Pictured here are not auroras but light pillars, a phenomenon typically much closer. In most places on Earth, a lucky viewer can see a Sun pillar, a column of light appearing to extend up from the Sun caused by flat fluttering ice-crystals reflecting sunlight from the upper atmosphere. Usually, these ice crystals evaporate before reaching the ground. During freezing temperatures, however, flat fluttering ice crystals may form near the ground and are sometimes known as a crystal fog. These small ice crystals may then reflect not the Sun but ground lights. The featured image captured not only numerous light pillars but also the iconic constellation of Orion, and was taken in Mohe, the northernmost city in China.
