Google Research Introduces Phenaki - Generating Realistic Videos from Text Descriptions 📹

Google Research team just unveiled Phenaki, a new AI tool that can turn text into realistic videos. Say goodbye to boring written descriptions, and hello to visually stunning videos that bring your words to life. Phenaki uses an encoder-decoder model to compress videos into tokens and a transformer model to translate text into video tokens. Plus, it can generate arbitrarily long videos from open-domain prompts. It's like having a mini-Hollywood studio at your fingertips. Check out Phenaki's demo videos and see for yourself.
