New Creative Experiences Brought by AI

'Movie Gen' is an AI that generates high-resolution videos based on text prompts. It can quickly create context-appropriate videos from phrases like 'a dog running on a sunset beach', providing a new means of expression for creators and general users.

Additionally, it includes editing features that allow users to create videos from still images or add new elements to existing videos. This heralds an era where anyone can easily produce video content.

A Tool to Expand Creators' Expressions

Meta emphasizes that 'Movie Gen' is not a replacement for artists or animators but a tool to support their creativity. By instantly visualizing prototype ideas and simplifying the trial-and-error process, it is expected to be a significant aid for creators.

With its planned introduction on Instagram, users will be able to easily transform daily records into videos or creatively present special moments.

As we move towards a future where technology and human creativity merge, our methods of expression are anticipated to evolve further.
