Meta AI gains video editing capabilities

Meta has announced the addition of video editing capabilities to its Meta AI app, allowing users to edit short videos using preset AI prompts. These features enable changes in costumes, locations, and styles, positioning Meta against competitors like Google and other AI-powered editing platforms. The new tools are available on the Meta AI app, Meta.ai website, and Edits, a CapCut competitor, in the U.S. The editing tools are inspired by Meta's Movie Gen AI models, though it's unclear if these models power the tools. Users can currently choose from 50 presets to edit 10-second videos, with plans for more customization options later in the year.

The presets offer creative options like applying a "vintage comic book style," altering lighting to a rainy day, or changing a subject's clothing to a space cadet suit. Edited videos can be shared directly to Facebook and Instagram from the Edits and Meta AI app. Meta aims to encourage creators to use its tools over third-party apps, enhancing creative experimentation and video sharing. The company has gathered feedback from creators to develop these presets, aiming to make video editing accessible and engaging for users.
