OPENAI'S SORA SOARS TO NO. 3 ON THE US APP STORE

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

OpenAI's Sora app saw 56,000 downloads on its first day. It is now ranked third Top Overall app on the US App Store, despite being invite-only and limited to users in the US and Canada. The ChatGPT app and Google's Gemini iOS apps had stronger launches, with each reaching at least 80,000 downloads on day one, but since Sora is invite-only, that may not be a fair comparison. The strong release indicates there is a demand for AI video tools with a social networking-like experience.
