Meta unveils AI tool capable of creating videos from texts, photos NHK

US tech giant Meta has unveiled a new artificial intelligence tool that can create videos up to 16 seconds based on text and photo inputs.

The company announced the generative AI model, called Movie Gen, on Friday. Its official website introduces multiple videos produced by Movie Gen.

When the text "A woman DJ in a pink jacket spins records with a cheetah by her side" is input along with her photo, Movie Gen creates a high-resolution video of the woman in the photo keeping rhythm as instructed.

The AI model can also add sound effects or replace images in existing videos. A sample movie shows a flying lantern being changed into a soap bubble.

Meta says Movie Gen is still under development. It expects to release the AI tool next year after taking safety measures to prevent misuse.

Competition is heating up over AI video creation, as OpenAI and Google are also developing similar technologies.
