OpenAI's recent image generation feature has attracted widespread attention, but the platform is facing huge traffic pressure as the number of users surges. To ensure the stability of the service, OpenAI announced that it will temporarily disable the Sora video generation feature for new users. This decision is to alleviate the burden on the server and ensure that existing users can use the platform smoothly.

OpenAI posted a notice on its support page, saying: "Due to the large current traffic, the video generation function of new Sora users will not be available for the time being. However, users who log in for the first time can still use the image generation function." This adjustment is obviously to keep the platform running normally and avoid affecting the user experience of all users.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman responded to the change on social media, saying the team has been working hard to cope with the high demand and even working overtime to keep the service stable. Sam pointed out that OpenAI is making every effort to improve the system's load-bearing capacity so that video generation functions can be restored as soon as possible.

Although this change has disappointed some new users, existing users can continue to use the image generation feature. OpenAI promises to continuously monitor system load and resolve current issues as soon as possible to provide users with a smoother experience.

With the rapid development of AI technology, the contradiction between the platform's carrying capacity and the growing demand has become increasingly obvious. OpenAI's response measures and subsequent development will receive widespread attention. We look forward to the recovery of Sora's video generation function in the near future, bringing more creativity and fun to users.
