Google’s Veo 3 AI video generator is a slop monger’s dream

Summary
AI video generation technology has progressed to a point where it is now almost impossible for people to distinguish from the real world, and Google’s Veo 3 AI model is an example of this.
News anchors, disasters, and cartoon cats with convincing audio can all be created using the model, with the only limitation being the imagination of the user.
While some concerns have been raised about the potential misuse of this technology, such as spreading misinformation or creating disturbing content, Google has built in some safeguards to prevent inappropriate use, and the AI isn’t yet advanced enough to create completely lifelike videos.
However, the potential for the technology to be used to create bland, repetitive content that is designed to mesmerise toddlers on platforms such as YouTube Kids, remains a possibility.
