Gemini AI can now turn photos into videos


Google just launched a new Gemini AI feature that lets you transform photos into video clips. The new photo-to-video capability is powered by Google’s Veo 3 video model, and it can transform reference images into eight-second videos complete with AI-generated audio, including background noises, environmental sounds, and speech.
The Gemini video update is now available to Google AI Ultra and Pro subscribers “in select regions,” according to Google. It’s rolling out on the web starting today and throughout the week on mobile devices.
Gemini users can access the feature by clicking the “tools” option in the prompt bar, selecting “video,” and uploading their photo alongside a text description of how they want it to move. Audio descriptions can also be included for dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise, which Google says will be “perfectly synced with the visuals.” The finished videos are delivered as MP4 files at 720p resolution and a 16:9 landscape format.
“You can get creative by animating everyday objects, bringing your drawings and paintings to life, or adding movement to nature scenes,” Google said. “All generated videos include a visible watermark to show they are AI-generated and an invisible SynthID digital watermark.”
A similar feature is already available in Flow, the generative AI filmmaking tool launched by Google in March, but now Gemini users can animate their photographs without having to open another app. Google says that Flow will also be launching in “an additional 75 countries” today, in addition to rolling out Gemini’s new video feature.
