Google DeepMind's new AI model, Veo 2, aims to outshine OpenAI in video generation. Capable of producing high-resolution, longer videos, Veo 2 boasts improved physics understanding and camera control, resulting in clearer and more cinematic footage.

and OpenAI (the team behind ChatGPT) is heating up, with both companies rolling out new products, features, and updates this month. Now, Google DeepMind, Google 's AI research lab, is setting its sights on beating OpenAI at the video-generation game – and it just might pull it off, at least for a while. DeepMind just unveiled Veo 2 , the next-generation video-generating AI and the successor to Veo, which powers various products in Google 's lineup.

Veo 2 can produce clips longer than two minutes, with resolutions reaching up to 4K (4096 x 2160 pixels). That's four times the resolution and over six times the duration of However, this advantage is still theoretical. In Google's experimental video tool, VideoFX, where Veo 2 is currently exclusive, videos are limited to 720p and only eight seconds long. (Sora, on the other hand, can generate 20-second videos at 1080p.) VideoFX is currently on a waitlist, but Google is increasing the number of users who can access it this week. The company plans to roll it out to more of its products, including YouTube Shorts, sometime next year. Much like the original Veo, Veo 2 can create videos from a simple text prompt or a combination of text and a reference image.So, what's different with Veo 2? Well, DeepMind says this new model comes with a better'understanding' of physics and camera controls, which leads to'clearer' footage. By clearer, they mean sharper textures and images, especially in action-packed scenes.When it comes to camera controls, Veo 2 can now position the virtual camera more precisely and move it around to capture people and objects from various angles. It can also simulate different lenses and cinematic effects, giving videos a more polished, movie-like feel. Plus, it's said to capture more subtle human expressions. DeepMind shared a few carefully selected samples, and I think they look pretty impressive for AI-generated footage.That said, there's still some work left to d
