Deepmind: Transframer AI dreams 30-second video from an image

Deepmind's new video AI, Transframer, can handle a whole range of image and video tasks – and dream up 30-second videos from a single frame. Generative AI systems have moved from research labs to industrial and consumer applications in recent years, kicked off by OpenAI's large-scale language model GPT-3. Then last April, the company introduced the DALL-E 2 imaging system, which indirectly spawned alternatives such as Midjourney and Stable Diffusion. Google sister Deepmind is now showing Transframer, an AI model that could offer a glimpse of the next generation of generative AI models. Deepmind's Transframer is a visual prediction framework that can solve eight image modeling and processing tasks at once, such as depth estimation, instance segmentation, object recognition or video prediction.
