YouTube announced its new AI Google video model, VEO, last Wednesday. The model, especially suited for YouTube shorts, provides viewers with high-quality backgrounds to make their shorts engaging and compelling. But we already have a dream screen for that, don’t we? So, what’s so special about this tool? Let’s unveil!
Google Incorporated VEO, New AI Video Model, Into YouTube Shorts
VEO for YouTube shorts somewhat resembles the dream screen feature launched in 2023. Using the feature, creators can generate amazing backdrops for their YouTube shorts. On Wednesday, Google announced VEO, a new AI video model for all creators. This AI tool provides a breathtaking background and allows you to edit and remix previously generated footage.
No. If you think your awestruck ends here, you are mistaken. Google VEO AI video model enables creators to generate six-second-long standalone video clips. When you select Create and decide on the background using the dream screen, the tool turns the backdrop into a video.
VEO can help creators add filler scenes to the videos, allowing for smoother transitions. YouTube will add the tool later this year, but shorts will be watermarked using DeepMind’s SynthID tech, marking the content as AI-generated.
Additionally, YouTube announced a few features, such as Jewelry and gifts, which seem similar to TikTok gifts. The feature will offer a new way for viewers to connect with their favorite creators.
The other feature is an automatic dubbing tool. To break the language barrier, YouTube has expanded this tool to support multilingual creators, including French, Portuguese, Italian, and Spanish. You may also see an AI-generated thumbnail tool and AI assistant that responds to follower comments.
Conclusion
Google VEO video model is more advanced than any background generative tool. It adds motions to the existing image with the dream screen provided and makes it a six-second video. While the company announced the VEO, it also highlighted some upcoming features that may or may not be in the testing phase. Most of them are AI-oriented tools that make the creator’s life easier.
