Google's new AI video generator is more HR than Hollywood

For most of us, creating documents, spreadsheets and slide decks is an inescapable part of work life in 2024. What's not is creating videos. That's something Google would like to change. On Tuesday, the company announced Google Vids, a video creation app for work that the company says can make everyone a "great storyteller" using the power of AI. Vids uses Gemini, Google's latest AI model, to quickly create videos for the workplace.
