[Bad News] Despair over the end of Sora. But here is how asking Gemini saved me. A thorough review of where to switch your video generation AI! *Prompts included

It was so exciting until yesterday, and then suddenly, it is all over. Honestly, the moment I woke up and saw the news, my mind went blank. The king of video generation AI, Sora, has unexpectedly withdrawn. What was all that time I spent waiting with excitement? Right now, I am just filled with a sense of exhaustion. Because I had such high expectations, the shock of feeling betrayed has left me so damaged that I cannot even taste my lunch.

01 The end of a dream comes suddenly. The feeling of emptiness like when your favorite shop disappears
Just by typing in a prompt, you get Hollywood-like footage that moves smoothly. That feeling of using magic is something you can never forget once you have experienced it. It is as if someone suddenly told you, 'We are closing up shop today.'
This is similar to that heart-wrenching feeling when a hidden cafe you frequented is suddenly evicted along with the recipe for its signature menu item. The place where we entrusted our creativity has been leveled in an instant due to platform circumstances. Don't you all feel this sense of aimless frustration?

02 Why did it disappear? The behind-the-scenes story I got by grilling Gemini
I threw the question, 'Why did it have to end?' at the AI, Gemini. The answer that came back was more realistic and a bit more cutthroat than we might think.
• A battle for money and power
Creating the highest quality video requires an insane amount of electricity and computing power. To build 'smarter AI (like GPT-5),' they had to cut the power allocated to video. It is like giving up dessert for the sake of the main course.
• The high wall of character rights
If famous characters like Mickey suddenly appeared without permission, they would obviously get angry. Behind the dream collaboration, it seems like legal 'landmines' were buried everywhere.
• The forced watermark of 'Is this AI?'
Precisely because the videos are so amazing that they are indistinguishable from the real thing, they are forced to stamp 'This is AI' on them. That lack of freedom might have hindered development.

03 Is Google safe? Things to know before moving to Veo
If Sora is gone, everyone is moving to Google's 'Veo.' But according to Gemini, 'Google is not a paradise either.'
• The existence of an indelible 'digital watermark'
Videos created with Google will have a mark called 'SynthID' that can never be removed. It is like having someone else's name faintly written on your own work, a lingering feeling of it being 'borrowed.'
• Like a school with rules that are too strict
With 'this is not allowed, that is not allowed,' Google's checks are quite strict. For those who want to enjoy doodling freely, it might be a slightly suffocating environment.
• 'Work' takes priority over play
It is great for YouTube ads or business use. But for those who just want to create fun things for the sake of it, it might look like a bit of a 'stiff tool.'

04 After the storm, you just need to sow new seeds
What I realized after despairing and chatting with Gemini is that it is dangerous to rely too much on a single tool. But at the same time, I felt hope that the 'power to create worlds with words' that we have obtained has not disappeared.
From now on, it is an era of creating your own 'AI recipe' by using the stability of Google or trying out other new tools, rather than chasing one 'god tool.'
If your favorite pen breaks, try a different brush next time. As you experiment like that, you should be able to draw even more wonderful pictures than before. Why not overcome this shock and start a new adventure of expression together?

<Reference Prompt>
(1) It seems OpenAI has ended Sora, but what is it actually like?

(2) By the way, if OpenAI's Sora becomes unusable, a flow of users to Google is predicted, but is there a possibility of similar problems on the Google side?

(3) Based on the above exchange, write an article for note with a story about seeing the news that OpenAI suddenly stopped the Sora video generation service, and asking Gemini about the background and concerns about users flowing into other companies' AI video services, while considering the following points.
1. Incorporate keywords that attract attention on note.
2. Include strong negative elements at the beginning to invite empathy.
3. Overall, use a structure of 'Empathy -> Problem Statement -> Solution -> Emotion'.
4. Incorporate 'sizzle' that stimulates the five senses.
5. Use analogies to familiar things or daily life.
6. Make the titles of each section stimulating and empathetic.
7. The article title should sound like a failure that was resolved, be empathetic, easy to search, and incorporate the 4U formula.
8. For content that would be a table, use bullet points instead of a table.
9. Include SEO-strong words that align with the article content.
10. Do not use emojis or special symbols.
