With the tech industry pushing AI-based software all over, AI video generators at this point aren’t anything new, although admittedly a lot of them are a bit lacking. This is something that Meta apparently wants to address with its new AI video tool, dubbed “Movie Gen.”
As with most gen AI software, Movie Gen works by creating content based on user prompts, and it can even edit existing footage by adding in visual elements based on what you type, allowing users to add objects into videos which weren’t there before. It can also transform still photos into videos – the software’s webpage demonstrates several sample videos, showing subject photos which are then used in realistic-looking footage.
Additionally, it can also create sound effects, ambient noise and cinematic soundtracks for use with footage, again all with text-based prompts. Of course all of this brings into question how malicious actors can use such technology and software for all the wrong reasons, as well as creatives concerned about the impact that AI has on the film and music industry, although Meta states that it’s developing its AI software “around a core set of values to ensure trust and safety.”
