Meta is offering an AI video generation service via Twitter right now called Make-A-Video. Although it looks pretty horrendous right now, the number of comments in just a day suggests that soon the AI image generation fad will be superseded by AI video generation. It's a big leap, with researchers pushing the boundaries of generative art as we know it, in particular how much data is necessary to bring images to life.
«With just a few words, this state-of-the-art AI system generates high-quality videos from text prompts,» Meta AI writes in the tweet, and calls for prompts. The trick to keeping heaps of unregulated gore and porn from being generated and posted on Twitter? Send the prompt to them, and they might post the results.
We’re pleased to introduce Make-A-Video, our latest in #GenerativeAI research!

The alternative to waiting for the (likely scarred for life) Meta AI team to potentially select your prompt out of the thousands now piling into the comments is to head over to the Make-A-Video studio(opens in new tab) and sign up using the Google form to register your interest(opens in new tab) in the tool.
The accompanying research paper (PDF warning(opens in new tab)) calls the Make-A-Video process «an effective method that extends a diffusion-based T2I model to T2V through a spatiotemporally factorized diffusion model.» That's a fancy way of saying they used an evolved version of diffusion's Text-to-Image generation model to make pictures move.
