6.5 AI Image, Audio, and Video Generation
Generative AI can now make pictures, voices, music and video clips from a text description.
Chapter 6: Generative AI
Images: tools like Midjourney, DALL·E and Stable Diffusion turn prompts into pictures. Audio: AI can generate voices (text-to-speech), clone voices from samples, and make full songs from a description.
Video: text-to-video models create short clips, and other tools can dub videos into new languages or edit footage by description.
Big responsibility note: the same tech can create deepfakes - realistic fake videos or voices of real people. Always ask for consent before using someone's face or voice, and be skeptical of shocking clips you see online.
Stay sharp
If a video of a celebrity saying something wild looks too perfect, check a trusted source before sharing.
Key takeaways
AI generates images, voice, music, video, 3D and code
Same tech powers deepfakes
Consent and fact-checking matter
