Google Vids: Create AI Videos with Your Own Avatar
Google has updated its Google Vids tool, allowing users to create digital avatars based on selfies and voice recordings. Now you can become the main character of AI videos using your own appearance and voice. The update also includes integration of the multimodal model Gemini Omni, which combines text prompts and reference images to generate videos.
New Features of Google Vids
Gemini Omni not only allows you to create videos from scratch, but also edit them: replace backgrounds, fix lighting, add effects. Step-by-step edits are supported — changes are made without needing to start over. This transforms Vids from a tool for work presentations into a full-fledged platform for creating AI content.
Personalized Avatars and Security
Avatars are linked to a Google account and marked with an invisible SynthID watermark. Access to the feature is limited to users over 18 in certain regions. Google emphasizes that avatars cannot be used to create deepfakes of company management.
Competition in the AI Video Market
The update places Google Vids alongside services like HeyGen, Synthesia, Captions, and D-ID. The tool is aimed at business tasks: corporate updates, training videos, AI advertising. Mass video generation by neural networks is becoming more accessible for e-commerce and crypto projects.
Cost and Efficiency of AI Videos
Google does not disclose pricing for Vids, but experts note that AI production via subscription can reduce the cost per minute of video by 10 times compared to traditional UGC. The neural network writes scripts, edits, and generates avatars, allowing scaling production to 500 videos per day.
