Google’s Veo 2 AI video generator is now available to Gemini Advanced subscribers, bringing the capability to create realistic video clips to a wider audience. Gemini Advanced is a $20 monthly subscription that offers access to most of Google’s AI models.
Veo 2 was previously available through Google Cloud’s Vertex AI platform, targeting enterprise users. The AI model can generate 720p resolution videos up to 8 seconds long in 16:9 landscape format, saved as MP4 files. These videos are marked with Google’s SynthID, a digital watermark indicating they are AI-generated.
Google has also launched Whisk Animate for Google One AI Premium subscribers, allowing users to create new images and animate them using Veo 2. Google One AI Premium includes a Gemini Advanced subscription and additional Google One benefits like more cloud storage, all for $20 a month.
To address potential misuse, Google has performed extensive red teaming to anticipate and mitigate the creation of harmful content with Veo 2. The rollout of Veo 2 to Gemini Advanced subscribers started immediately, making it easier for users to generate AI videos.
Editor’s note: If you are in a Google Workspace, you can experience Gemini Advanced without paying a dime!
