Google revealed a new AI model that can generate videos, and it's collaborating with Donald Glover to create a short film.

Google unveiled its “most capable” model for generative AI video at Google I/O 2024 , and it went beyond a few cherry-picked samples. Google is working with Donald Glover, or Childish Gambino, to create a short film that leverages Google’s new AI model, which it calls Veo.

Details are light about Veo at the moment, but Google says it’s able to turn a text prompt into a video, similar to OpenAI’s Sora. Google is currently testing the model with select creators, but it says it plans on rolling out Veo for a wider release soon. You can sign up for the waitlist at labs.google.com.

The project is a collaboration between Glover and Google DeepMind, and the company says it’s “coming soon.” You can see the video clip, along with several examples of the generated video, below.

Related We put our cutting-edge video generation model Veo in the hands of filmmaker @DonaldGlover and his creative studio, Gilga. Google says these clips are the “raw, unedited output” of Veo, and all of the clips look very impressive. Over simply creating a video with your specified subjects, Google says Veo is able to capture nuances like camera techniques and visual effects that you may want in your shot.

It all sounds a little too good to be true, but generative AI for video has developed rapidly over the past few months. Just two months ago, OpenAI showed several videos generated with Sora that looked like they were captured with a camera. And reports suggest that OpenAI is shopping Sora in Hollywood, working with studios to add its generative AI tool to movies.
