The feature uses artificial intelligence to analyze the image and generate a video clip in seconds. This technology can be used for various applications such as creating animated explainer videos, social media content, and even educational materials.

The Catholic Church has promoted ethical thinking on new technologies under Pope Francis' predecessor Leo, who initiated the Rome Call for AI Ethics in 2020, signed by Microsoft, IBM, the United Nations, Italy, and several universities.

https://www.twincities.com/2025/06/20/passwords-leaked/The Israel-Iran conflict has been distorted by tech-enabled misinformation, with AI-generated videos falsely claiming damage inflicted on Tel Aviv and Ben Gurion Airport, and chatbot-generated falsehoods spreading across social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and X. Experts warn of a digital crisis as rapidly advancing AI tools blur the lines between truth and fabrication. Generative AI misinformation has surged, particularly in relation to the conflict, with companies like GetReal Security detecting manipulated media, including AI deepfakes, linked to Google's Veo 3 AI generator. Disinformation watchdog NewsGuard identified 51 websites spreading false claims, including fabricated reports of Iran capturing Israeli pilots and online clips lifted from war-themed video games. The crisis highlights an urgent need for stronger detection tools, media literacy, and platform accountability to safeguard public discourse.

Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, predicts that more powerful AI models could eliminate 50% of white-collar entry-level jobs within five years. Microsoft founder Bill Gates believes that humans won't be needed for most tasks over the next decade as AI becomes increasingly common and useful for tutoring and medical advice. However, experts argue that AI is likely to replace jobs involving repetitive activities, which can be automated by machines working 24/7 without breaks or demands for time off.
