Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a video on his personal Instagram account, showcasing his leg press workout at the gym.

However, this video is not just a simple fitness share; the leg press machine transforms into neon cyberpunk, ancient Roman, and golden flame styles within the video. This is actually Zuckerberg announcing Meta's latest AI tool — Movie Gen.

Movie Gen is Meta's new family of multimodal generative AI models, capable of generating videos and audio based on text prompts, and allowing users to customize videos by adding effects, props, and costumes. Zuckerberg demonstrated this functionality in the video, where users can alter specific elements of the video through text commands without regenerating the entire video.

According to Meta's technical paper, Movie Gen surpasses leading competitors in the market, such as Runway Gen3 and OpenAI Sora, in several key attributes. Meta hopes this tool will not only help ordinary users enhance their digital creation capabilities but also attract professional video creators and Hollywood filmmakers.

Movie Gen includes four main models: Movie Gen Video (a text-to-video generation model with 30 billion parameters), Movie Gen Audio (a video-to-audio generation model with 13 billion parameters), Personalized Movie Gen Video (a version that generates personalized videos based on individual faces), and Movie Gen Edit (a new model for precise video editing). Users can generate high-definition (HD) videos up to 16 seconds long with high-quality audio through simple text prompts.

Behind this technology, Meta has trained on a vast amount of data collected from the internet, including 100 million videos and 1 billion images. This has raised questions about data sources, especially regarding copyright issues among artists and creators. Despite this, Meta continues to push the boundaries of its AI technology.

Movie Gen is planned to launch on Instagram in 2025, with Meta aiming to provide more users with advanced video creation experiences. The company will continue to collaborate with creators and filmmakers to ensure that Movie Gen meets user needs. Zuckerberg emphasized that this technology is not intended to replace professional artists and animators but to provide them with a more convenient tool.
