As an American citizen, the last thing I want is government using AI for mass surveillance of Americans.
This is absolutely shameful. Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.
Generalist robots need a generalist evaluator. But how do you test safety without breaking things? 💥 🌎 Introducing our new work from @GoogleDeepMind: Evaluating Gemini Robotics Policies in a Veo World Simulator veo-robotics.github.io 🧵👇
Symbols, space, and time can represent most of the "information". In this eval paper, we show how video models are generalist "space-time reasoners". It's like "let's think step by step" in LLMs in 2022. Veo3 is like GPT-3 in 2020, and can't wait for its thinking/RL moment.
Testing out Veo 3.1 Reference, you can upload any of your characters and prompt them into any scene. Just like that. And yes, I am aware this is nothing new. But it's a cool feature to have, and we need more of this. 2025 is the year we solved consistency. I'm all for it.
We’re making robots more capable than ever in the physical world. 🤖 Gemini Robotics 1.5 is a levelled up agentic system that can reason better, plan ahead, use digital tools such as @Google Search, interact with humans and much more. Here’s how it works 🧵
Since launching Veo 2, we’ve built new capabilities and addressed a few pain points to help filmmakers and creatives. 📽️✨ Here’s a quick rundown. 🧵
Motion master 👋 Define the exact movement of objects in your video. Select an object 🤏 and define its path ↩️, and Veo will bring them to life in motion.
Let's check out that prompt adherence... "The camera follows a dachshund running through a living room and out of an open front door and onto a porch. It stands on the top stair overlooking the neighborhood as an ice cream truck drives by." - #Veo3
