Google I/O 2024: VEO, Google's Generative AI Video Generator Is Here

On Tuesday, Google, owned by Alphabet Inc., announced the rollout of a version of its widely-used search engine featuring responses generated by artificial intelligence, at its annual I/O conference. Google is calling it Veo, its generative video AI model capable of producing 1080p videos from text prompts in various cinematic styles, which can then be edited using prompts. To recall, last year, the tech behemoth began employing AI to generate responses to queries, albeit requiring users to sign up for an experimental version to test it out. Google will now introduce the latest version of its search, incorporating what it terms "AI Overviews," to users in the US this week and expand to more countries in the following months, the company said.
