Google Launches Veo AI Video Generator in Private Preview

Veo, Google's advanced generative AI model for video creation, is now available to select Google Cloud customers via Vertex AI, positioning the company ahead in the competitive AI video space.

Veo generates high-definition videos from text or image prompts, offering frame-level consistency and various cinematic styles for clips exceeding 60 seconds.
The model is available in private preview on Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform, enabling businesses to integrate video generation into their workflows.
Google's Imagen 3, a text-to-image generator, is also rolling out to all Vertex AI customers next week with new customization and editing tools.
Veo includes safeguards like DeepMind's SynthID watermarking to address misinformation concerns and copyright risks, though limitations in physics accuracy remain.
Competitors like OpenAI's upcoming Sora and AWS's Nova Reel are trailing behind as Google becomes the first major cloud provider to offer video generation at this scale.
