OpenAI announced this week that it’s shutting down its Sora app and related video models just six months after launching the app.
On the latest episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Kirsten Korosec, Sean O’Kane, and I debated what the decision means for OpenAI and for the industry more broadly. To some extent, the move seems consistent with what we’ve been hearing about OpenAI as it focuses on enterprise and productivity tools ahead of a possible IPO.
In fact, Kirsten suggested that OpenAI’s decision to shutter Sora was “a sign of maturity that was nice to see in an AI lab.”
Read a preview of our conversation, edited for length and clarity, below.
Anthony: I think it’s worth highlighting that it’s not just the app. I mean, the app was particularly unappealing to me, at least, and I think to other people, because it was this idea of a social network without people, where it’s just nothing but slop.
But beyond the app, it seems like OpenAI is basically winding down pretty much everything it’s doing with video. According to the Wall Street Journal, which broke some of this news, it’s really about this idea that Open AI is — in advance of potentially going public — really trying to focus on business products, enterprise products, programming products. [So] this consumer social app, [and] more broadly video, is not a priority right now.
Techcrunch event
San Francisco, CA | October 13-15, 2026
Sean: Yeah, I never really used [the app]. The idea of it turned me off for a number of different reasons. And you know, it was a good reminder that Open AI — and I don’t mean this to knock them down in really any way — but I think this was a reminder, probably, for them internally, of the element of luck […] in how successful ChatGPT became.
Clearly, there is something that is valuable there to people, I don’t want to take away from that, because you do not get to the usage numbers that we’ve heard reported from them without there being something that is working right —and even more so that it’s been kept up over a number of years and developed into something that stays meaningful to people.
But there was an element of Sora, when it came out, of like, “We built the most successful consumer product ever, and now we’re doing it again. And we’re going to bring in Disney and all this stuff.” I think this is just a really harsh reminder of like it’s not always going to be an absolute shortcut to the top of the greatest consumer products ever and that there really needs to be something that people feel like they’re getting some meaning out of it for it to stick around.
Kirsten: Yeah, I actually want to give OpenAI props for this decision, because we sometimes make fun of the whole idea of “move fast and break things,” but I think that there is some value [to] companies that can iterate very quickly and then kill off products that are not working and not feel a sense of failure behind it. I mean, there was real money that was lost. If you were to look at the deal with Disney, that was a billion dollar deal, but if you look at — and we don’t have the insight into this because we’re not seeing their balance sheets — but what were they spending on this and what was the long-term value for the company?
And I think that while, sure, it was interesting to see what they could create, their decision to shutter it, to me, showed a sign of maturity that was nice to see in an AI lab.
Anthony: In terms of what it means for OpenAI, it seems very consistent with everything that we’ve been hearing about their strategy going forward. It doesn’t seem like a huge blow or anything like that in terms of how we think about the future of generative AI.
Particularly in video, it’s interesting because it also comes at this time that there’s been reporting around Seedance, which is the ByteDance generative AI model [for video]. There’s reports that [Seedance 2.0 has] been delayed because there’s engineering and legal questions and basically [figuring out], “Can we build IP protections into this?” Which apparently they hadn’t taken as seriously before.
And so, it’s this reality check moment. There were these really hyperbolic statements, including from people within Hollywood that [were] like, “We’re done, this is the future, it’s just typing in prompts and making feature films.” And it turns out that for all kinds of technical and legal reasons, it is not that easy and we are very, very far from that happening.
Sean: And the last thing I think we should say about this, too, is this is one of a number of decisions that appear to be happening after Fidji Simo came in [and began] sort of running the day-to-day operations. That’s just a huge dynamic that’s changed inside of OpenAI. And I think the further we get away from that moment of of her being tapped to run the show, and especially these consumer products and decide the fate of them, the easier it’ll be to look back at this moment in time and think about how big a moment that was for this company.
Apple unveiled new device-level age restrictions in the UK on Wednesday. “After downloading a new update, users will now have to confirm that they are 18 or older to access unrestricted features,” reports Gizmodo.
“Users will be able to confirm their age with a credit card or by scanning an ID.”
For those underage or who have not confirmed their age, Apple will turn on Web Content Filter and Communication Safety, which will not only restrict access to certain apps or websites, but will also monitor messages, shared photo albums, AirDrop, and FaceTime calls for nudity. Apple didn’t specify exactly which services and features are banned for under-18 users, but it will likely be in compliance with UK legislation…
The British government does not require Apple and other OS providers to institute device-level age checks, but it does restrict minor access to online pornography under the Online Safety Act, which passed in 2023. So far, that restriction has only been implemented at the website level, but UK officials have been worried about easy loopholes to evade the age restrictions, like VPNs.
The broader tech industry has been campaigning for some time to use device-level age checks instead in response to the rising tide of under-16 social media and internet bans around the world. Last month, in a landmark social media trial in California, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg also supported this idea, saying that conducting age verification “at the level of the phone is just a lot clearer than having every single app out there have to do this separately.” Pornhub-operator Aylo had advocated for device-level restrictions in the UK as well, and even sent out letters to Apple, Google, and Microsoft in November asking for OS-level age verification…
The most obvious question: Could this be brought stateside?
AI is coming to take my job, so I’d better start looking for a new one. Luckily, there are a ton of job simulators on Steam, and I’m going to play as many as I can until I find my next career. This week’s job: Zoo Life Simulator, an early access game about managing a zoo.
I’m not sure who put me in charge of a zoo so massive I need to ride a horse just to get across it and yet only gave me a budget of $1,200 to spend on animals to fill it—but that’s the situation I find myself in on my first day of work in Zoo Life Simulator. I’m in a big, empty zoo with very little money (and a horse).
I browse the animal shop, which at this stage contains only chickens, rabbits, and geese, none of which I typically associate with zoos. But, you’ve gotta start somewhere, so I start with chickens. I spend half my cash on chickens, which at $60 each means I now have 10 whole chickens. Welcome to my awesome zoo?

But hold on. It’s my first day on the job and I want to show some initiative, some strong decision-making skills. Go big or go home, right? So I take my remaining $600 and also spend it on 10 chickens. I’ve blown my entire budget within a few seconds of being hired, sure, but that’s what it takes to get ahead. 20 chickens. From this I shall build my zoo empire.
Unfortunately, the game won’t let me do anything else until I’ve bought food for my 20 chickens, and I can’t do that with $0. Humbled, I sheepishly sell back half of my chickens. Worse, I don’t even get my 600 dollars back. I sell my other 10 chickens, but still, no refund.
Didn’t expect to be given a horse on day one. (Image credit: Hiraru)
It’s day one of my new job and all I’ve done is spend $1,200 on zero chickens. I try to imagine what I’d actually do if I lost my employer’s entire budget on my first day of work, and I honestly think I’d go to my bank, take out the amount of money I’d spent, and quietly slip it into the zoo’s cash drawer. I’d prefer losing my own money over getting yelled at or exposed for incompetence.
I do the equivalent of that by starting the game over.
Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.
This time I buy a rabbit. Just one rabbit. My bravado is gone and my goal is now to just get through a single day without screwing things up. I release the bunny from its cargo container, which explodes (don’t worry, in this zoo universe that’s normal). The rabbit sort of creeps around so slowly I suspect it’s either elderly or horribly ill, but it’s so small and so far from the enclosure fence that maybe no one will notice.
I buy a bag of rabbit food, which is airdropped by helicopter in a container roughly 50 times its size (this is also normal). I pick up the bag with telekinesis (normal) and due to the awkward physics of the game, only manage to pour about 1/100th of the food into the rabbit’s trough, losing the rest. A fine start!
I ride my horse back to the park entrance—it suddenly occurs to me a horse would make a much better zoo exhibit than a rabbit—and have my zoo’s grand opening. Grandly, nothing happens for a while. I get on my horse and ride out of the park, eventually spotting some people slowly walking in my direction. No cars, no buses. The people in this world simply walk from the distant horizon to my park entrance, then trudge another half mile to the rabbit enclosure.
I leap off my horse, closely monitoring the reaction of my guests who spent $15 at the gate to see a single, elderly rabbit behind a fence. I am not disappointed, and neither are my guests.
The rabbit is that brown smudge 100 feet away. (Image credit: Hiraru)
COOL, one says. WOW says another. OMG says a third. The words appear over their heads as if they’re sound effects torn from a superhero comic. They wave their arms and pump their fists. Some even dance. Looks like my Oops No Animals Except One Rabbit zoo is a hit.
With just a bunny to manage, there’s not much else to do on day one. The rabbit takes a dump and I clean it up. It eats a surprising amount of food for a lone rabbit, but there’s no risk of it running out. A visitor gets inside the rabbit pen somehow, stands ankle deep in the pond inside the enclosure and faces the corner, yet still seems utterly jazzed about visiting my nearly immobile rabbit. Maybe running a zoo is actually really easy? How did Matt Damon make a whole movie about this?
Profit made, the next morning I purchase a single goose and move it in next door to the rabbit. Feeling a bit more daring, I also buy a “service area,” which turns out to be a hot dog cart, another hot dog cart, a kebab cart, and a third hot dog cart. The day ends with more profits from hot dog lovers and people impressed by an old rabbit and a silent goose.
It it remembers it can fly, my entire business plan will be in ruins. (Image credit: Hiraru)
Day three is a bit shakier. Both the rabbit and goose seem to be consuming entire bags of food that are several times their size and pooping like crazy. The paths of my zoo are now filled with trash, presumably from guests visiting the many hot dog stands and not disposing of their litter properly. Once trash cans are full they burp up a giant trashbag, which I must telekinetically hover to a dumpster down the road.
And no matter how many times I increase the cost of the park entrance fee (with two very different animals on display, I’ve jacked up the price from $15 to $50), everyone entering only pays $13 each. Vexing.
Even so, by the next day I’ve doubled my net worth and then some: I’ve got five grand burning a hole in my pocket and I’m desperate to level up to a larger animal that’ll really impress the most easily impressed people in existence, like a goat. But at this rate, it’s going to take ages with just one rabbit and goose, so it’s time for the nuclear option.
I circle back to my original plan: go big or go home. I spend $3,000 and buy 50 chickens. Let’s get bawk wild.
They’re moving in herds. They do move in herds. (Image credit: Hiraru)
First problem: the nearest available pen isn’t anywhere near the rabbit or goose or the spot where the helicopter drops my animal food. It’s way down a road and way up a hill, so to even get there I need to load up the horse with feed bags and gallop. Second: if one rabbit and one goose each eat a single giant bag of food in a day, how much do 50 chickens eat? This is a question I should have asked a few seconds before buying 50 chickens instead of a few seconds after.
Third: the chickens are simply too annoying to be around. They don’t crow, but they do bawk-bawk-bawk constantly. I have to mute the volume to even set foot in the chicken pen, and I have to set foot in the chicken pen constantly because they eat so much. With the food trough at 0%, I dump an entire sack full of feed in. In under a minute, it’s empty again. I’m going to be doing nothing but humping food up the hill all day and night.
Spared no expense. (Image credit: Hiraru)
It’s hard to argue with success, though. I’ve doubled the amount of guests visiting my trash-filled zoo and in a single day I’ve already made back the $3,000 I spent on those annoying chickens. Gritting my teeth, I buy another 50 chickens, hoping to speedrun my way to goat ownership.
But something occurs to me when I check on my goose, which has taken three stinky dumps already today. If one goose poops three times a day, that means 100 chickens…
Hey, boss? I said I wanted to go big or go home. But I definitely don’t want to pick up 300 chicken poops today. So I’m going home.
Performance Evaluation
Would I like to manage a zoo IRL?
Looking at animals behind bars all day would make me sad, and picking up all their poops all day would also make me sad. So, no.
Would I make a good zoo manager IRL?
I’ve proved I will foolishly and repeatedly spend thousands of dollars on chickens the moment I’m given the chance. So, no.
Is Zoo Life Simulator good?
There’s a sort of clunky charm to the sim, and I can imagine it being more fun in co-op—but I’d also describe it as “very, very early access.” Might want to let it bake for a bit. Here it is on Steam.
A former Warhorse Studios developer indicated that the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 studio will be using AI for all localization going forward. This comes as more developers face backlash over the implementation of generative AI in their games.
On Saturday, Czech-to-English translator and editor Max Hejtmánek posted on Reddit claiming that he was fired by developer Warhorse Studios and replaced with AI. It came as a shock to the developer, who said he worked on dialogue, quest logs, item names, and marketing material for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and its DLCs.
“Yesterday, March 27th 2026, with no forewarning, I was invited to a meeting and promptly told that, in an effort to ‘make the company more effective’ and ‘save finances’, as of next month, my position at the company would become ‘obsolete’ in favour of using AI for all translations going forward,” Hejtmánek explained. “This came as a huge shock to me, as though the discussion about using AI for translating had frequently come up in the past, something I was always strongly and vocally against, but never to the extent that it might actually cost me my job in the future.”
Image: Warhorse Studios/Deep Silver via Polygon
A look at Hejtmánek’s LinkedIn shows he worked at Warhorse Studios between July 2022 and March 2026; additionally, the moderators of the Kingdom Come subreddit verified his identity. At this time, Warhorse Studios has not publicly commented on Hejtmánek’s claim. We’ve reached out to a representative of publisher Plaion and Warhorse Studios for comment and will update this article with any response we receive.
The use of artificial intelligence by game developers is a controversial topic. While the technology permeates events like GDC, the backlash to its use is usually immense. Just this past weekend, Crimson Desert faced derision over the use of generative AI for in-game art assets.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 released to critical acclaim in February 2025 and was even nominated for Best Narrative, Game of the Year, and Best Role Playing Game at The Game Awards 2025. As such, it’s disappointing to hear that AI will be used in any part of the creative writing process, even if it’s solely for language translation. The head of Warhorse Studios did recently defend Nvidia’s much-hated DLSS5 AI technology, though, so perhaps this pivot shouldn’t be too surprising.
Do you have a friend, family member, or colleague who won’t give up their iPhone? It makes sharing files challenging; the only options are to use e-mail, instant messaging, or a cloud storage site for larger or multiple files.
OnePlus has its Share with iPhone tool in the O+ Connect app, which works wonderfully, though it requires opening the app first on the receiving device. Google added AirDrop to its Pixel 10 series, confirming last month that it would be coming to more devices in the line as well. Now, Samsung is joining, too.
What does this mean? Thanks to the latest update to Quick Share, Samsung Galaxy S26 devices have added AirDrop support to make sharing with iPhones even easier. AirDrop on Galaxy S26 launched on March 23, 2026, in Korea and has since been expanding to other regions, including the U.S. and Canada, where I reside.

How to Quick Share from Galaxy S26 to an iPhone
Quickly sharing files with Apple devices is now super simple with a Galaxy S26 device.
1. First, make sure the iPhone or other Apple device is ready to accept a transfer. Go to Settings on the Apple device.
2. Select General.
3. Select AirDrop.
Get the latest news from Android Central, your trusted companion in the world of Android
6. Once the iPhone is ready to accept, make sure the Galaxy S26 is updated to the latest software (you’ll also need Google Play Services v26.11.XX). You may also need to update the Quick Share app in the Galaxy Store.
Currently, the feature is only supported on Samsung Galaxy S26 devices, but Samsung says it will be announcing support for older model phones “at a later date.”
I tried this with a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, an iPhone 17 Pro, and a MacBook Pro M1. After updating to the latest OS and following the steps above, including changing my iPhone and MacBook AirDrop settings to “Everyone,” I tried sending a variety of files. I started small with a single photo.
The aforementioned pop-up confirms sharing with iPhone and warns that the phone could temporarily disconnect from my Wi-Fi network while doing so. The transfer usually takes only a few seconds, so it won’t even be noticeable if it does. But it’s worth noting that if you’re transferring many large files, it could take longer.
(Note that this means you won’t be able to share with Apple devices if your mobile hotspot is turned on, and the phone will warn you when this is the case.)
It worked instantly, just as it does from one Apple device to another. A pop-up appears indicating that a Galaxy S26 Ultra would like to share a photo and offers me the option to Accept or Decline. Once I hit accept, the image arrived and was added to my Recently Saved album. I then tried with multiple photos, and while it took a bit longer, as it does with Apple devices when sending larger files, too, it went through without a hitch. It was the same with a 1.5-minute video file.
The process worked just as well from a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra to my MacBook Pro, with the pop-up allowing me to Accept or Decline, and, if accepted, choose either Open in Downloads or Save to Photos. And, of course, it works when sending files from Apple devices to a Galaxy S26 (or recent Pixel devices), with these devices appearing in the AirDrop flow.
As someone who often takes images from Android phones for articles and then edits them on my MacBook, this feature is invaluable. All screenshots taken from the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and used in this article, for example, were AirDropped to my MacBook Pro for editing in Photoshop. Previously, I would have to upload the images to Google Drive and download them as a zip file from my computer, then unzip and copy them into Photoshop. This eliminates an extra few steps, making the process so seamless.
This feature bridges the two Apple and Android worlds in a way that makes sharing content simple, regardless of which OS you use. Imagine sitting at a dinner table with friends. One person hands their phone to the waiter to take a group shot, then must open an email or instant messaging thread to send the photo to everyone.
In fact, this happened to me recently at a work event when one person took a photo and had to send the image to us separately via WhatsApp since one had an iPhone and the other an Android device. He didn’t have one person loaded in WhatsApp, which took a few extra steps to add her. A quick AirDrop tap for both of us would have made it much quicker.
Like RCS messaging, AirDrop on Android devices like the Samsung Galaxy S26 series, as well as compatible Google Pixel devices, is another solution to the compatibility issues that have plagued the industry. We can probably expect to see the feature come to more Android devices in the future. For now, it’s another reason why the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra ranks among the best Android phones.
Make the connection
One of the latest and greatest features of the new flagship Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra smartphone is the ability to AirDrop files from the device to a compatible Apple device, including iPhone, iPad, and MacBook, bridging the Android and Apple worlds.
Whether you’re planning a long day of travel or simply forgot to charge your phone overnight, there are situations where a portable power bank can be a game-changer. Most power banks solve the battery problem, but create a new one: bulk. Depending on the capacity you need, these can be heavy and inconvenient to carry around, and might not even be travel- or airline-friendly.
That’s the concern INIU is addressing with its Pocket Rocket P50 power bank. It boasts a 10,000mAh capacity, weighs just 160 grams, and is small enough to comfortably slip into your pocket. And for its Spring Sale, INIU is offering discounts of up to 30%. Here’s what you need to know.
Design
Power banks are usually pretty utilitarian-looking. The Pocket Rocket P50 breaks from that tradition with a range of colorful finishes that look great. Color options range from black and grey to mint, purple, vanilla, and blue, giving it a touch of style that you won’t get elsewhere. It’s not the biggest issue, but the focus on design, along with utility, certainly helps the P50 stand out from the crowd.
The claim to fame, though, is that the P50 is one of the smallest 10,000mAh 45W power banks currently available. Powered by an industry-first TinyCell Pro battery, this power bank is 45% smaller than standard models.
It’s pocketable in a way that many power banks with this capacity aren’t. It’s small enough to be in your pocket, and won’t take up much space in a backpack. And at just 160 grams, you will barely notice it’s there.
And adding to its portability is a detachable USB-C lanyard cable. You don’t have to worry about forgetting the charging cable, and it’s also designed to look great and add a ton of convenience.
Charging speed and capacity
Charging your phone with power banks can feel rather sluggish, especially if you’re used to fast wired charging. The INIU Pocket Rocket P50’s 45W charging isn’t just another specification, but something that makes a huge difference. And with its 10,000 mAh capacity, you can charge most smartphones fully at least 1.5 times.
The P50 can charge an iPhone 17 to 70% in about 25 minutes, which is fantastic. It also supports PD, QC, and Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0, helping you quickly and easily keep your Android phone charged throughout the day.
Safety first
To ensure the P50 remains safe and reliable for a long time, INIU has built a Next-Level Thermal Management System, complete with Temp-Guard battery cells, NVIDIA-grade inductors, and an E-Marker chip. Everything works in conjunction to ensure stable performance and optimal temperature control in various usage scenarios.
There’s also a heat-dissipating digital display that gives you a clear readout of the battery level without guessing from LED dots. So while it charges quickly, the P50 is also designed to charge responsibly.
Get the INIU Pocket Rocket P50 now!
For anyone heading into a season full of travel, outdoor plans, or spontaneous day trips, the P50 makes a strong case as your ideal portable charging companion. The combination of its compact form factor and fast-charging performance, in a single affordable package, isn’t something you get too often.
The P50 is launching as part of INIU’s Spring Sale, which runs on the INIU Official Store from March 20 through April 20, and on Amazon until March 31. It’s not just the P50 on sale; it covers the full INIU lineup at up to 30% off, with tiered checkout discounts automatically applied, including up to $20 off orders over $100.
There’s also a student discount offering 20% off for verified students, and a social media giveaway running on Instagram and TikTok, where following the INIU accounts enters you for a chance to win a $100 Steam gift card.

Video games, or more so the people who play them, I suppose, have this annoying thing where they assign a genre name as an insult. I don’t want to reignite the discourse around JRPG as a term, but it certainly was used in quite a derisive and othering manner in its earlier years. The term walking sim was used more as a point of ironic degradation, even though it was perfectly apt in many ways. Then there’s Eurojank, a sort of real but not technically real genre that describes ambitious but imperfect games made by European developers. And Andrii Verpakhovskyi, designer on the original Stalker games, doesn’t think such jank should be geologically categorised.
“Some of my favourite games back in the day were Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines and Arcanum, both built by Troika Games, which was the core team [from the] Fallout games before them,” Verpakhovskyi told Edge magazine in a recent interview (via PC Gamer). Those games were janky as hell, but they had this same soul that was in games described as Eurojank, which is why I think it’s unfair to kind of geofence the genre.”
Eurojank is more something that was foisted upon the games that Verpakhovskyi and co were making at the time. “We had absolutely no notion that what we were doing we were doing differently from people building games outside of the post-USSR space,” he explained. “We never even drew any kind of lines between Japanese games of Nintendo fame or Sega Genesis, and the games that came out of the US, Canada, the UK and western Europe.” Verpakhovskyi noted that the devs working on Stalker were all newcomers to the industry, with many not trained in engineering or art. So really, no wonder the games came out imperfect in places.
Verpakhovskyi’s comments are genuinely a good opportunity to reflect on how we name genres. The genres I mention at the start of this article didn’t appear from a place of love, generally, even if they’ve been reappraised to a degree. I myself love a walking sim, will partake in a JRPG, and have a deep admiration for jank of any affiliation. But perhaps we could afford to think more about how with make assumptions of games from certain regions. Just a thought!
