Beautiful, On a balmy San Francisco afternoon, I sing a birthday song for a dinosaur prehistoric. When I’m done singing, an empty cupcake appears with a small pink candle in it. The CGI creature’s expression calms down when I extinguish the flame.
Although the AI-generated video features a similar man to me in appearance and voice, it was not the original clip. actually generated Google Gemini now has a new feature: avatars. The core features are the same as those of OpenAI’s defunct Sora app. This is a digital copy of yourself that you can insert into AI videos. The company’s Omni video model powers the avatars, which are only available for subscribers.
How much do you pay per month? Google’s AI Pro plan Gemini has a 5 hour reset. Then I asked some questions to generate two 10-second videos featuring my avatar.

The first time I saw what Omni was capable of doing with my likeness, it showed me performing to a Dino in San Francisco as well as surfing beneath the Golden Gate Bridge. The video was both impressive and terrifying. I was simultaneously impressed and horrified by the content, which was a jumble of muddled moments, nonsensical clothes, and sloppy outfits. But that was me in the video. Then I zoomed in and watched the mouth moving with my finger. Reece is all there, down to even the fat on his chin.
The opposite OpenAIUsers could choose to have their image used in AI-generated videos. Google Only adult users can create videos using their avatar.
The whole thing took only five minutes. set up my avatar Gemini is a great app for this. I sat in a bright room, pointed the camera of my phone at me and read a sequence of two-digits. After that, I slowly swiveled my head left and right while looking to the side. Reece was now ready to become my deepfake. It’s important to be aware of the clothing you wear during this stage, as it will affect your AI.
You can break the clip down frame-by-frame to understand my emotions. Complete prompt: Create a video with me singing the Happy Birthday song at Dolores Park to an old dinosaur..

The second word begins with a millennial pauseEven AI Reece is a creature of habit. The photorealistic background is what strikes you first. Google’s AI videos are remarkably accurate in their portrayal of the location. Instead of placing my avatar at some random hill, it is actually a park. It’s easy to tell which park this is, even if the final product is not perfect. From the palm-tree lined sidewalks and the distant Salesforce, you can’t miss it. This is logical for a mapping company.
First few bars of AI me singing, in a pitchier baritone that I could actually sing with, seemed very natural. Like a conductor, I bounced up and down my hands on the beat. Next, I stammered on the word “to,” Gemini switches to a wide-angle view as chaos breaks out. The vanilla cupcake is thrown at random, and the candle for celebration gets blown out by a smoke cloud. AI Reece is rude. This is not your special birthday.
