Google is integrating its Veo 2 video-generating AI model into Gemini Advanced for paying subscribers. Starting Tuesday, Gemini Advanced users can select Veo 2 to create eight-second, 720p videos in a 16:9 aspect ratio, which can be shared on platforms like TikTok and YouTube. The videos can also be downloaded as MP4 files with Google's SynthID watermark. This offering does not extend to Google Workspace business and educational plans.
