Google’s Gemini AI has introduced a new feature that can help users determine if a video was created or altered using artificial intelligence. With this update, people can upload short clips and ask Gemini to analyze the content. The AI then examines the video and audio for signs of synthetic generation, highlighting portions that may have been produced by AI tools. This provides a more detailed assessment than a simple yes or no, making it easier for users to understand what might be artificial in a clip.
The tool builds on Gemini’s existing capabilities for image analysis and extends them to video. It works by identifying digital markers embedded in content created by Google’s own AI systems. When detected, the system can point out specific frames or segments that are likely AI-generated, giving viewers a clearer picture of the video’s origin. This functionality is particularly useful as deepfake and AI-created media become increasingly realistic and widespread online.
While the system is limited to shorter videos and currently recognizes only content produced by Google’s AI models, it is available globally and does not require a subscription. The feature reflects a growing effort to make AI content more transparent and provides everyday users with a practical tool to verify media authenticity. By highlighting potentially synthetic elements, Gemini aims to help users navigate the rising flood of AI-generated videos with greater confidence.
