Bad news: Google is rolling out generative AI tools for video creation (Google Vids). It's turned on by default for all Google Workspace users.

Good news: If you turn off Google Vids for your domain, your users won't be able to open Vids files shared with them. Hooray for avoiding deep fakes!

I bet Google trained their new generative AI video creation tool on the whole of YouTube.

Those AI generated videos are gonna be a terrible mash up of
- ASMR mic scratching
- gamers cursing like sailors
- vloggers hawking shit for sponsors
- conspiracy theorists whispering
- white supremacists angerly ranting

Yeah... it's gonna be great.
