YouTube integrates Google DeepMind’s powerful AI model, Veo, into Shorts. This will allow creators to generate stunning video clips and backgrounds quickly.
YouTube is bringing a new level of AI innovation to its shorts platform by integrating with Google Deepmind’s video generation model, Veo.
This announcement was made during the “Made on YouTube” event. It is a significant step toward empowering content creators with AI driver tools.
With Veo, users can create high-quality video backgrounds and generate 6-second stand-alone clips that enhance storytelling.
Veo is a cutting-edge AI machine-learning model that can generate 1080p clips in cinematic genres. It is exceptional compared to other video generation tools, such as Open AI’s Sora or similar Pika or Runway applications.
Another advantage that Veo has over its counterparts is the possibility of editing existing clips. This adds even more creative control to the creative process.
Veo will improve YouTube’s Dream screen. This feature started in 2023 and allows creators to create backgrounds based on specific text.
Now, with Veo, creators can go beyond generating background images and full clips that are visually pleasing and suitable for the content. Users can expect this feature in the latter part of this year.
It integrates watermarked AI-generated content through the technology SynthID developed in-house. This feature allows users to distinguish AI-generated content based on its watermark.
In addition to integrating with Veo, YouTube will release several new features. One of these is “Jewels.” It is similar to “Gifts” for TikTok viewers, who can send virtual gifts during live streams. It aims to increase engagement between viewers and creators.
YouTube will make its automatic “dubbing feature” available in French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. This feature has expression capabilities, and the dubbed audio will sound even more similar to the creator’s tone and style.
Community interaction has also improved with the increase in community hubs. Posting will become more productive for creators and fans.
The platform also expands the “hyping” feature in other markets. It will recommend the hyped videos based on the hype points in a leaderboard.
Finally, creators will be able to explore new features in the new YouTube studio, such as ideas for videos, thumbnail generation, and replies to followers using AI in their background.
