I Tried the AI Tool That Made Those Viral Videos, and It's Not As Good As You’d Think ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

It's not perfect yet, but Veo 3 is taking the internet by storm, with viral clips covering everything from street interviews to incompetent Stormtroopers. Depicting soldiers of the Galactic Empire is at least one way of ensuring consistency between clips, because of course they all look the same.

But those are the end results. What about the creation process? If you pay Google for an AI subscription, then you can produce Veo 3 videos of your own, and there are a couple of ways to go about it, which I'll get into here.

Creating videos with Veo 3

If you pay $20 a month for the Google AI Pro plan, then you get three Veo 3 video generations per day in the Gemini app, using the faster, lower-quality Veo 3 Fast model. If you've gone big with the $250-per-month Google AI Ultra plan, you get the "highest limits" for full Veo 3 access—Google doesn't quantify this exactly, so there may be no hard ceiling, and it may well fluctuate based on demand. Each video is fixed at eight seconds long.

If you're using the Flow and Whisk tools for your video creation, rather than the Gemini chatbot, it's a bit different: You get 1,000 AI credits on the Pro plan per month, and 12,500 credits on the Ultra plan. A standard Veo 3 video will set you back 100 credits, and a Veo 3 Fast video is going to cost you 20 credits—and in these tools, the resolution can be upscaled to 1080p (it's 720p if you're using the Gemini app).

To start making videos, if you're a Google AI Pro subscriber like me, you need to head to the Gemini app on the web (mobile video creation is limited to Google AI Ultra subscribers for now). Click the model picker in the top left corner, then choose 2.5 Pro (preview) or whatever the latest model is by the time you're reading this: You can then select Video in the text input box and you're ready to do some prompting.

Previously, I used Veo 2 to try and recreate the old Sony TV ad, where thousands of colored bouncy balls get thrown down the streets of San Francisco. The results weren't great, so I gave Veo 3 Fast the same challenge. As you can see below, I got a better video back. It could almost pass as something that had been filmed in real life (the sun through the trees is great), but it still ignores most of my prompt instructions, and is nowhere near as good as Sony's ad.

With only two Veo 3 generations left for the day, I tasked Veo 3 Fast with recreating the classic "welcome to Jurassic Park" scene in Spielberg's movie. Again, it's better than the Veo 2 effort, but there are problems with prompt adherence, and there are too many paleontologists. The dinosaurs (and the dinosaur sounds) are well done, though.

Using Flow to create longer movies

Once you get into Flow in your web browser, click New project to get started. You can then start prompting, using the settings button in the top right of the prompt box to choose the model you want to use—you'll see how many credits the generation is going to use up as well, before you do any rendering.

Again, we have the usual problems, in that the AI generator doesn't really know what it's supposed to be doing here, or how to construct a scene beyond what it's seen in other videos. Our intrepid adventurers are looking in the wrong direction when one of them delivers the "wow... would you look at that" line, and everything from the dinosaurs to the trees looks generic.

The difference with Flow and creating extended videos is that you can click Add to scene on any of these generated videos and start building something longer, made up of eight-second chunks. Scenes can then be extended and arranged as needed, with the same characters and environments carried over from one clip to the next.

Veo 3 is still at an early stage, and Google has put "experimental" labels all over it and the Flow interface. However, at the moment you're going to have to spend a lot of credits and a lot of time working on prompts to get something that's consistent and realistic. It's likely that hours of effort and trial runs went into the polished AI videos you see populating your social media feeds.
