AI Video Creation Revolution

ANYONE CAN MAKE CONTENT NOW

- BY HAFSA RIZVI

You don't need a camera crew. You don't even need to film anything. Al is now letting anyone produce professional-looking video content with just text prompts and basic ideas. The latest wave of tools is changing who gets to be a content creator, and the barriers are dropping fast.

What Just Launched and Why It Matters

Meta just launched “Vibes,” a new AI video feed inside their Meta Al app that works like TikTok, except every video is created by artificial intelligence. Users can start video creation from scratch, use existing content, or remix videos from the feed. It’s not just another social media feature - it's a fundamental shift in how content gets made.

At the same time, Google updated their Veo 3 AI video generator to support vertical 9:16 format videos - the format everyone actually watches on phones. They also cut pricing significantly, with Veo 3 now costing $0.40 per second instead of $0.75, and Veo 3 Fast dropping to just $0.15 per second. When tech giants start competing on price, you know the technology is ready for mainstream use.

How This Actually Works

The process is surprisingly simple. You type what you want to see: “a cat wearing sunglasses walking through a busy market in Colombo.” The Al generates the entire video - visuals, movement, even basic audio. You can upload a photo and ask the Al to animate it, or take an existing video and completely change its style while keeping the structure.

Meta’s Vibes lets you remix existing videos by adding music or changing the visual style. Google’s system can handle more complex prompts and produce higher-quality output, while other tools specialise in specific types of content like product demos or educational videos.
