Posted:Google has quietly revealed the pricing of Veo 2, the video-generating AI model that it unveiled in December.According to the company’s pricing page, using Veo 2 will cost 50 cents per second of video, which adds up to $30 per minute or $1,800 per hour. Google DeepMind researcher Jon Barron contrasted this pricing with the blockbuster Marvel movie “Avengers: Endgame,” which had a reported production budget of $356 million — or around $32,000 per second.Of course, customers aren’t necessarily going to use every second of Veo-generated video that they pay for, nor is Veo 2 likely to generate three-hour “Avengers” epics anytime soon (Google’s announcement highlighted Veo 2’s ability to create clips that are two minutes or more).Another price to compare: OpenAI recently made its Sora video generation model available to subscribers paying $200 a month for a ChatGPT Pro subscription.TopicsSubscribe for the industry’s biggest tech newsEvery weekday and Sunday, you can get the best of TechCrunch’s coverage.TechCrunch’s AI experts cover the latest news in the fast-moving field.Every Monday, gets you up to speed on the latest advances in aerospace.Startups are the core of TechCrunch, so get our best coverage delivered weekly.By submitting your email, you agree to our Terms and Privacy Notice.© 2024 Yahoo.
