YouTube is bringing its Veo 3 AI video era mannequin, which my colleague Allison Johnson not too long ago referred to as “a slop monger’s dream,” to YouTube Shorts later this summer season, based on a Cannes Lions keynote from YouTube CEO Neal Mohan.
Shorts creators can already reap the benefits of the previous-generation Veo 2 mannequin to generate backgrounds with Dream Display in addition to standalone clips. Mohan didn’t specify precisely what Veo 3 will allow in Shorts, however he did point out Veo 3’s improved video high quality and that it may possibly incorporate audio, so presumably these upgrades will probably be coming to Shorts.
It’s additionally unclear if Shorts creators should pay to make use of Veo 3. Proper now, producing Veo 3 movies requires a paid subscription to Google’s AI Professional or AI Extremely plans. Google didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark.
Mohan additionally introduced that Shorts at the moment are averaging greater than 200 billion views per day.
