Google Biz Lowers the Barrier to Free AI Video Creation

According to AI TIMES, Google said on September 23 that it had added Gemini 1.1 Flash to Google Biz, making it possible to create 1080p AI videos for free with only a Google account. With this expansion, users can make videos while adjusting scene length, transitions, and output quality, without a separate production budget or professional editing skills. The key is that it broadened control over the entire production process, not just simple generation. When extending scenes, it was designed to preserve the flow of people and backgrounds as much as possible, and to smoothly connect existing clips into the editing process. Use cases were broadly presented, from individual creation to small business promotion, corporate marketing, and community campaigns. At the same time, Google said it would add invisible watermarks to AI-generated videos so that their source could not be concealed, and that it plans to add a text-to-speech feature in the future.
