Google announced a new YouTube Shorts Remix feature powered by Gemini Omni that lets users restyle videos as pixel art or anime or alter content by inserting themselves or inflating heads. Creators can disable remixing on their videos and all AI-generated versions carry a digital watermark linking back to the original.
Gemini Omni can turn video into anime or put giant heads on people.
Beyond restyling, users can also alter the contents by inflating heads, inserting background actors, dressing people in pirate costumes, or even putting yourself in the clip.
