Google recently introduced Veo, a generative AI video model, to compete with OpenAI's Sora. Both models generate video clips with just a few words of text, but early reactions suggest they may only be useful for pre-production visualization or filler content. Other generative AI video models, such as Lumiere by Google Research and models by Synthesia and Runway, show potential but also raise concerns about copyright infringement. Content creators and industry professionals in India are cautiously exploring the possibilities of generative AI while acknowledging that it won't replace human creativity.
