YouTube Shorts Creators Can Now Use AI Video Generator

Google CEO Neal Mohan explained that the Veo 3 AI video generator will be incorporated into YouTube’s Shorts section later this summer. Shorts has seen an incredible 186% increase in viewers over the past 12 months, demonstrating YouTube’s growing popularity. The inclusion of Veo 3 is expected to increase the platform’s capacity for content creators to express their creativity.
Veo 3: What is it?
The most recent version of Google’s AI video model, Veo 3, can produce high-quality audio and video in response to a text instruction. Although each generated clip lasts roughly eight seconds, the results are sufficiently lifelike that they might easily pass for non-AI material. The tool’s current version creates landscape films, which would result in a short with black bars. Google is anticipated to develop a customized version of the technology for YouTube in order to produce vertical video segments.
YouTube has already provided certain AI tools to producers
YouTube has already made several AI tools available to producers, such as Dream Screen, which uses text prompts to generate AI movie backgrounds. Veo 3 integration will be a significant improvement. Mohan stated at the Cannes festival that later this summer, the platform would begin incorporating Google’s top video model. He thinks that everyone will be able to explore new creative avenues on YouTube Shorts thanks to these capabilities.
Veo 3’s price and availability for YouTube producers
Mohan made no mention of the pricing structure, although it’s probable that using Veo 3 to create Shorts won’t be inexpensive. To utilize Veo 3, you currently require Google’s $250 AI Ultra subscription, and even then, you can only create 125 films every month. Some YouTube Shorts content makers may find the integration less accessible as a result.
