Google’s AI video generator, ‘Lumiere’, is here to turn your text into scenes.
It’s not the first text-to-video model we’ve seen, but Google claims it’ll beat the competition soon.
Right now, it’s best at making clips of animals and playing with animation styles.
But here’s where it gets interesting: You can upload your own video and change elements like a pro. Need the sky to be purple? No problem. Want a slow-mo walk? Done.
With a few clicks, you can get your video in the style of your whole project, cinemagraphs and all.
It’s a content creator’s dream, with a bit of an AI arms race twist.

Apple will let EU customers download apps from other sources and allow developers to offer alternative in-app payment methods starting March, following the new rules in the EU's Digital Markets Act.
In practice, users could download a different app marketplace that has apps unavailable on Apple's own store, like Xbox's Cloud Gaming.
Although the changes primarily apply to the EU, Apple will also introduce a separate app streaming gaming policy globally.
