Quote from the article:

With the mass adoption of ChatGPT, MidJourney, and soon Soma, OpenAI’s video-generating application

Mis-typed Sora, or is that a cheeky reference to A Brave New World?

The article is from March 24, so it wasn't well known by then.

I wasn't dogging on the author, actually praising them. In case you haven't read the book, this is what Soma is.

If it was a typo: Freudian slip, serendipitous If it was intentional: More kudos to the writer, clever

Either way I find it funny and perfectly fitting.
