Updated: 14-01-2026, 05.42 AM

What is the news?

Google has updated its generative artificial intelligence (AI) video model VO 3.1, which will allow users to create better AI-generated content. It now has the ability to create vertical videos directly for social platforms using reference images. These changes will make videos generated from reference images more expressive and dynamic. The company said that many professional-grade features and mobile-optimized formats have been included in this update.

What will be the benefit of upgrade?

The biggest update is a significant improvement to ‘Ingredients to Video’, Google’s technology that allows users to generate motion based on a specific reference image. This update makes videos more creative even with simple instructions. Native vertical output (Portrait mode) for Ingredients to Video empowers mobile-first, short-form video creation. Can produce 1080p and 4K resolution videos for high-quality production workflows.

Google solved this big problem

Google says that one of the biggest challenges in AI video creation is maintaining the same character or background across different clips and VO 3.1 solves this problem. The tech giant says the new model offers state-of-the-art identity stability, allowing creators to keep the character’s appearance consistent even when settings or camera angles change. This update also improves the stability of backgrounds and objects.
