San Bruno, California, USA - September 19, 2024:
YouTube is set to revolutionize content creation with a suite of new AI-powered tools. The video platform announced at its Made on YouTube event that creators will soon have access to features like generating six-second Shorts videos with text prompts and creating digital "jewels" for live streamers.
The centerpiece of the announcement is the integration of Google DeepMind's Veo video generation model into YouTube Shorts. Similar to OpenAI's Sora and other AI-powered video generation tools, Veo can produce high-quality, cinematic clips based on text prompts. This feature will enhance YouTube's existing Dream Screen tool, which allows creators to generate backgrounds for their videos.
In addition to Veo, YouTube is introducing digital "jewels" for live streamers. This feature is similar to the "gifts" popular on TikTok and will initially be available in the United States. The company has also expanded its automatic dubbing service to include French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish, and has made its Community hubs accessible to more channels.
For those struggling with video idea generation, YouTube Studio's Inspiration tab will now offer AI-powered assistance. The tool can suggest video concepts, generate titles, thumbnails, and even the first few lines of dialog. This should help creators overcome creative blocks and produce content more efficiently.
These new AI-powered tools represent a significant step forward for YouTube. By lowering the barriers to entry for content creators, YouTube aims to compete more effectively with platforms like TikTok and attract a wider range of creators to its platform.
