Remember the AI image generator craze of 2023? Well, tech giants are now moving on to the next stage: AI video creation. After OpenAI introduced Sora, their text-to-video generator, in February 2024, it was only a matter of time before Google followed suit.
And at Google's annual I/O developer conference last Tuesday, Google officially unveiled Veo, their most advanced text-to-video generator yet. Veo can generate 1080p resolution videos that can last over a minute!
Beyond Text-to-Video: Unleashing Creative Control
In addition to the high-quality output, Google claims that Veo offers its users an "unprecedented level of creative control." Its deeper natural language understanding allows Veo to capture richer details from longer prompts and understand cinematic terms like "timelapse" or "aerial shots."
Addressing Video Smoothness Challenges
One common challenge in AI video generation is the smoothness of transitions between scenes. According to Google, Veo can produce consistent footage, with various subjects like humans, animals, and moving objects acting realistically in the video.
Google's Advancements in AI Video Creation
Veo's capabilities are certainly exciting news! The arrival of Veo marks Google's progress in AI video creation. Google mentions that the model is built on top of all their previous video generation projects, including Imagen-Video, VideoPoet, and Lumiere.
Limited Access for Now
Similar to OpenAI's Sora, Google's Veo is not yet publicly available. Currently, Google is only sharing Veo with select creators through a private preview within the VideoFX platform. However, you can join the waitlist to try the model in the future.
Imagen 3: Enhancing AI Image Generation
Alongside Veo, Google also introduced Imagen 3, their highest-quality text-to-image model to date. Imagen 3 offers improved image quality and reduced visual artifacts. Like Veo, Imagen 3 is also only available for private preview within ImageFX for select creators and has its own waitlist.
AI Video Generation: The Future of the Creative Industry?
AI video generation technology like Veo has the potential to bring about significant changes in the creative industry. Video creators can easily generate explainer videos, promotional presentations, and even simple entertainment content using text prompts.
However, it's important to remember that this technology is still in its early stages of development. We need to see how Google and other companies continue to refine the capabilities of Veo and similar models in the future.
One thing's for sure, the arrival of Veo and Imagen 3 marks an exciting step towards a future of more accessible and efficient video creation.
