But when it becomes so easy to make video that you barely have to think about it, is that really harnessing our imagination? Maybe not in every case.Ĭoupled with the recommendation engines that drive so much of what we seen online, geared toward generating clicks, that makes our future look much more machine-directed - and, arguably, not very creative. Google's researchers contend that their tools will augment human creativity. Just as concerning is what these tools will do to people's daily diets of content. They're more likely to suspect that “photo” of President Joe Biden punching an old lady is AI-generated. Stability is working on a video-generation tool that it plans to release publicly when it's ready.īut while greater access to such tools will lead to more fake content, it will also mean more people are aware that the tools exist. I tried the tool and, in seconds, was able to cook up photos of former President Donald Trump playing golf with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. The British startup released an image-generation tool last August that allowed anyone to generate cool art, as well as fake photos of celebrities, politicians and war zones, something larger AI companies have banned. Of course, soon enough you'll be able to use these tools with few restrictions anyway, thanks to organizations like Stability AI.
#GOOGLE PHOTO STYLIZER CODE#
The model or its source code won't be released until the problem is fixed, Google researchers said. Google said that its own system generated videos that were biased against women even when they tried filtering out stereotyped results. Social media platforms have been heightening their efforts to weed out fake content, and both Google and Facebook are refusing to release their video-making tools to the public because of the potential for misuse (and presumably bad public relations). The other looming consequence is a flood of misinformation, but there may be less need for alarm on that in the short term. Already powered by AI and recommendation algorithms, AI videos would add to the self-reinforced feedback loops that scratch our cognitive itches. For the rest of us, the result would be social media feeds that are more machine-driven than ever. What happens when machines not only recommend the videos that keeps us scrolling, but have a greater hand in creating them too? Many of us love to watch footage of cute cats and people tripping over themselves, so an algorithm that could produce fake montages of awkward stumbles or frisky kittens would attract viral hits with little work, so long as they appear real.Ĭontent creators on TikTok, and the platforms themselves, have every incentive to exploit a tool that can generate videos at scale, especially when it's cheap and easy. Type in a prompt like “Boris Johnson” and TikTok will bring up an abstract image vaguely reminiscent of the former British prime minister.
#GOOGLE PHOTO STYLIZER GENERATOR#
In August, it added an AI image generator to its app for creating stylized green screens. TikTok's users love adding stickers, text and green screens to their posts, and the platform accommodates the demand with new tech. TikTok didn't respond to a question about whether it is building its own AI video-generation tool, but it would make sense for the platform to do so. But we'll almost certainly see them being posted in our social media feeds, particularly on platforms like ByteDance Ltd.'s TikTok, Instagram's Reels or YouTube.
#GOOGLE PHOTO STYLIZER MOVIE#
It's hard to see AI-generated videos coming to your local movie theater any time soon.
Erhan tweeted that he and his team wanted to empower people to “create their own visual stories… make creativity for people easier.” That's actually along the lines of what the researchers are hoping for. You may be thinking this is the end of Hollywood as we know it or that anyone with a few brain cells and a computer will soon be able to produce feature-length films. That's less than a third of the entire prompt, which reads almost like a movie script with commands such as “camera zooms in.” And here's the resulting clip, posted on Twitter by Dumitru Erhan, one of Phenaki's creators at Google Brain: The astronaut leaves the keyboard and walks to the left…” The camera moves away from the astronaut. The camera moves forward until showing an astronaut in the blue room. The camera gets inside the alien spaceship. An alien spaceship arrives to the futuristic city.
Here's an example of the prompt Google used for one: Google has also built an even more impressive second system called Phenaki that can create longer videos, lasting two minutes or more.
