What social benefit is there to developing this technology? Why spend billions creating a misinformation machine? Just to put film crews and actors out of work? It truly feels like innovation divorced from purpose.
New: TIME reporters were able to use Google’s AI video tool to make convincing videos of Muslims setting fire to a Hindu temple; Chinese researchers handling a bat in a wet lab; and elections worker shredding ballots.
After TIME contacted Google, it began adding a visible watermark to Veo 3 clips

My favorite American corollary I learned recently is that Broadway theaters employ more people than the entire American coal industry.
Britain has no idea - in terms of its self-image, not economists obviously - what economy it actually has
One of my favourite facts to point out is: at over £8bn annually, the *videogames industry* is more than twice as valuable to the UK economy as fishing and steel combined.

Men are extremely keen to explain to me that Britain *needs* a domestic steel production plant and doesn't necessarily *need* universities. Okay. Steel contributed about £1.7bn to the UK economy in 2024. Universities contributed more than £200bn.
