Google Veo 2 vs OpenAI Sora

Google's Veo 2 and OpenAI's Sora are both leaders in AI video generation.

Here are some screenshots from Google Veo 2 generated video.

Google Veo 2 Has More Resolution and Video Quality

Google Veo 2 is capable of generating videos in up to 4K resolution, which is a significant advantage over OpenAI's Sora, which is limited to 1080p for its premium tier, Sora Turbo. This higher resolution allows Veo 2 to produce videos with greater detail and realism, especially in terms of visual quality and the nuances of human movement and expressions.

Veo 2 Understands More Physics and Realism

Veo 2 has shown a superior understanding of real-world physics, resulting in more lifelike simulations of motion and interaction. This is particularly evident in scenarios involving complex movements or physics-based actions, where Veo 2 outperforms Sora in accuracy and adherence to the laws of physics. Users have noted that Veo 2 generates more natural-looking movements, reducing the "hallucinations" (unwanted or incorrect details) seen in other models like Sora.

Prompt Adherence

In tests, Veo 2 has demonstrated better adherence to user prompts, producing videos that more closely match the input descriptions. This includes understanding and applying cinematic terms and effects specified in prompts, making it more versatile for professional and creative uses.
