Open Sora 2.0: $200k-trained video model rivals commercial giants
Open‑Sora 2.0 (11 B parameters) was trained for under $200 K and released with full code and checkpoints. Benchmarks show it matches 11 B HunyuanVideo and 30 B Step‑Video on VBench and human‑preference scores. The low cost opens high‑fidelity video generation to labs and indie creators who can’t afford multi‑million‑dollar clusters.
