00:00So Google introduced a new AI tool that is absolutely mind-blowing.
00:04It's called VideoPoet, and it's an AI model specifically designed for video generation.
00:09It can create amazing videos from text, images, or even other videos.
00:13It can also do things like video stylization, video in-painting and out-painting, and video-to-audio conversion.
00:20So, VideoPoet is a large language model, similar to the ones used for text,
00:24but it's trained on a vast collection of videos, images, and audio clips.
00:28It operates using a technique known as autoregressive language modeling.
00:32This method works by generating content one piece at a time,
00:35with each new piece depending on the ones before it.
00:38For instance, given the word hello, an autoregressive language model predicts the next word, like world,
00:44based on how likely it is to follow hello.
00:46It continues this process, adding words one after another.
00:49In the case of VideoPoet, this process is applied to videos.
00:53It treats videos as sequences of tokens, similar to how text is treated,
00:57but instead of word tokens, it uses video, image, and audio tokens.
01:03These tokens are small elements of multimedia content.
01:06VideoPoet creates videos by generating these tokens sequentially,
01:09each informed by the previous ones, resulting in coherent and realistic videos.
01:14It can take various inputs such as text, images, or other videos,
01:18convert them into these multimedia tokens,
01:20and then produce a video by generating and assembling these tokens in a logical sequence.
01:25Now, the tool uses two state-of-the-art tokenizers for this purpose,
01:29MagVit, V2, and SoundStream.
01:32MagVit V2 uses convolutional neural networks and transformers,
01:36while SoundStream employs a recurrent neural network and a quantization module.
01:40These tokenizers efficiently handle complex multimedia content.
01:43So incorporating these into its architecture,
01:45VideoPoet converts any input like text, images, or videos into tokens.
01:49Then, its autoregressive language model generates new output tokens based on these inputs.
01:55Finally, the tool reassembles these tokens back into videos, images, or audio,
02:00using the inverse functions of MagVit, V2, and SoundStream,
02:04allowing it to create dynamic videos from various inputs.
02:08Now, this tool is actually capable of various tasks.
02:11For example, it can create videos from text.
02:14If you give it a sentence or a story, like a dog chasing a ball in the park,
02:18it will make a video showing exactly that, complete with realistic movements and sounds.
02:23It can also turn images into videos.
02:25Give it a photo or a drawing, such as a person smiling,
02:28and it will create a video of the person smiling naturally.
02:31Another cool thing VideoPoet does is video stylization.
02:34It can apply different artistic styles to a video.
02:37Say you have a cityscape video and you want it to look like a painting.
02:40It can do that, adding artistic effects.
02:42It's also good at video in-painting and out-painting,
02:46where it fills in or extends parts of a video.
02:48For example, if you have a video of someone walking against a green screen
02:52and want to change the background to a beach, it seamlessly blends it in.
02:56It can even turn videos into audio clips.
02:58If you have a video of someone talking, it can create a clear audio clip of their voice.
03:03What's really impressive is how VideoPoet handles complex motions in videos,
03:15making them up to 30 seconds long with smooth and realistic transitions.
03:20The videos are consistent, logical, and mostly free of errors.
03:23They can even be creative and unique without losing realism.
03:27The examples of videos created by this tool look professional and are quite astonishing.
03:31Seeing how good VideoPoet is at creating these videos,
03:34I'm sure you'll be as impressed as I am.
03:37Now, apart from its ability to generate videos,
03:39this tool has some cutting-edge features that enhance its capabilities.
03:43One key feature is zero-shot video generation.
03:46It can create videos from any input right away,
03:48without needing any specific training or adjustments for that particular task.
03:52This is possible because it's been trained on a huge variety of videos,
03:56images, and audio from many different areas and styles.
03:59Another feature is its multimodal generative learning objectives.
04:03So it can handle and create content that combines different forms like video, image, and audio.
04:09It achieves this through specific learning goals,
04:11designed to understand how these different types of content relate and interact with each other.
04:16For instance, it has a cross-modal objective that helps ensure the output matches the input across different forms.
04:22It also uses a self-attention objective,
04:25which helps create outputs that are both coherent and varied within the same form.
04:30These goals enable VideoPoet to learn and generate content that is not only diverse,
04:35but also rich in expression.
04:36Finally, VideoPoet can create longer videos up to 30 seconds,
04:40which is longer than what's typical for this kind of model.
04:43It does this using a hierarchical structure that breaks the video into segments,
04:47and works on each one individually while keeping the overall flow and quality consistent.
04:53It also has a memory mechanism that holds information from previous segments
04:56and uses it for generating subsequent ones.
04:59Now, in the real world, this tool has many uses.
05:02In digital art, it helps artists create unique and expressive animations,
05:06illustrations, and paintings.
05:08For film production, it's useful for editing, post-processing,
05:11and adding special effects,
05:13helping filmmakers enhance their storytelling.
05:15It also plays a role in interactive media,
05:18like games and virtual reality,
05:20where it can create responsive, adaptive, and immersive content.
05:24However, VideoPoet isn't without its challenges.
05:27It faces technical difficulties,
05:29especially in maintaining consistency in long videos
05:32and generating realistic motions.
05:34To overcome these, it uses a hierarchical architecture
05:37and a memory mechanism for temporal consistency
05:40and employs a universal tokenizer and language model for high-fidelity motions.
05:44Talking about what's next for VideoPoet and technologies like it is really interesting.
05:49It is already an advanced tool with a lot of promise for the future,
05:53but it could grow and get even better in several ways.
05:55Firstly, it could get even more data to learn from,
05:58including different types like text, speech, and music.
06:01Then, it could be doing more kinds of tasks across more fields.
06:04Right now, it can turn text or images into videos,
06:08add styles to videos, and even convert videos into audio.
06:12In the future, this tool might be able to take a long video
06:14and turn it into a shorter version that includes all the main points.
06:18And there's the creative side of things.
06:20VideoPoet can already make unique videos from inputs like text, pictures, or other videos.
06:26But if it starts using new methods like adversarial learning,
06:29reinforcement learning, or meta-learning,
06:31the videos it creates could be even more groundbreaking and captivating.
06:35So, what's your take on VideoPoet?
06:37Do you find it fascinating, a bit overwhelming, or perhaps even intimidating?
06:41Feel free to share your thoughts.
