Google DeepMind, Google’s flagship AI research lab, wants to beat OpenAI at the video generation game — and it might just, at least for a little while. On Monday, DeepMind announced Veo 2, a next-gen video-generating AI and the successor to Veo,

Google DeepMind has unveiled the next generation of its artificial intelligence (AI) video generation model, Veo 2, positioning it as a direct competitor to OpenAI's Sora. The company has simultaneously upgraded its image generation model,

Contractors working on Google Gemini are comparing its responses to Claude's, according to internal correspondence seen by TechCrunch.

Google is leveraging Anthropic's AI model Claude for performance benchmarking and for evaluating Gemini's outputs against those generated by Claude.

Google is now leveraging its PaliGemma 2 open VLM to developers, available via Kaggle, Hugging Face, and Ollama for use in various applications to improve their capabilities in vision-based content.

FACTS Grounding benchmark is seen as a significant step in promoting trust and accuracy in AI-generated content.

Apptronik, an AI-powered humanoid robotics company, has entered a strategic partnership agreement with the Google DeepMind robotics team. The partnership will bring together artificial intelligence with hardware and embodied intelligence, advancing humanoid robots that can be more helpful to people in dynamic environments.

Google claims Veo 2 has a "better understanding of real-world physics"—an issue that often trips up such tools.

Google Deepmind has unveiled its next-generation AI tools, Veo 2 and Imagen 3, along with a playful new experiment, Whisk, aimed at remixing visuals in creative ways.

Whisk is a “creative tool” for quick inspiration, Google said in a blog post, as opposed to a “traditional image editor.” In essence, Whisk is intended as a fun AI feature, rather than as something that’s supposed to be refined professional work.

Google unveiled on Wednesday its first-ever AI agent that can take actions on the web, a research prototype from the company's DeepMind division called

Google's DeepMind unveiled Veo 2 model on Monday, a video generation model able to create clips up to two minutes in length at 4K resolution.
