Google is opening up its Veo 3 AI video tool to all Gemini<\/a> users for free with no Pro or Ultra plan needed, but the clock is ticking.<\/p>\n

Veo 3 lets you turn a text prompt into an 8-second video with audio<\/a>, a tool that\u2019s usually reserved for paying subscribers. Google is making it free for all Gemini<\/a> users until Sunday, August 24, at 10 p.m. PT, according to a prompt within the Gemini app (via 9to5Google<\/a>).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, Google’s Gemini account on X<\/a> says users can only generate up to three videos each during this promo.<\/p>\n

Even when you’re a paid Google AI Pro subscriber ($19.99 a month), you typically get three video generations a day. Paid users can also create higher quality videos with Google’s Flow online video editor.<\/p>\n

Bringing Veo 3 video generation to Gemini was a major upgrade for the platform. Initially limited to Google\u2019s AI Ultra plan, the feature rolled out to the AI Pro tier in May, giving many more users access.<\/p>\n

This promo seems to be available worldwide, not just in the U.S., as this author saw the same prompt pop up when opening the Gemini app on Android.<\/p>\n

Veo 3 videos are limited to eight seconds and come with an automatic audio track, but if you don\u2019t specify what you want, it\u2019ll just use a generic filler. Adding clear sound instructions ensures the final clip matches your vision.<\/p>\n

9to5Google reports that Google has beefed up its computing power to handle the expected traffic for this trial.<\/p>\n

The move was hinted at Thursday when Josh Woodward, head of Gemini and Google Labs, mentioned<\/a> the team was \u201csetting up a LOAD of TPUs today and warming them up,\u201d which now seems to have been prep for this weekend\u2019s rollout.<\/p>\n

To try Veo 3, open the Gemini app on mobile or web and choose the Video option from the prompt bar. You can also find it in the three-dot menu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What you need to knowVeo 3\u2019s AI video generator is free for all Gemini users until August 24…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":95300,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[62,276,277,49,48,61],"class_list":["post-95299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=95299"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95299\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/95300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=95299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=95299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=95299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
