Google Veo 3; AI Video Generator. Too Good?

Google Veo 3

Google Veo 3 was launched in May 2025 at the Google's annual I/O developers conference. It was a simple text-to-video model, you can create realistic videos by giving prompts, but it's no just another awful video generator, where people have 6 hands! Google Veo 3 is incredibly powerful, creating ultra realistic, life-like scenes of our given prompt. It is quite hard to tell if it's real or not. AI is getting really scary! But less see what it can do. 

Realism

Veo 3 can generate video's as 4k quality with sound effects, ambient noise and human dialogue with captions. With creativity in our hands we can generate videos with prompts that give output just the way you imagined. We can create hyper realistic cinematic scenes and dialogues which fit the character. It can generate scenes of humans with natural looking movements with there hands and follows all physical principles making videos unbelievably realistic.

Audio 

Veo 3 can create videos with sond effects just the way you want them to be, with backround music, where we can tell it what theme it should be; happy, sad, thrilling etc. In videos with human interactions it can create dialogues with the sound of the gender of the person, the way the person says it, how loud it should be etc. We all these features we can use our creativity to max.

Disadvantages 

What would happen if these powerful AI video generators got in the wrong hands? As these videos are getting too realistic scams, fraud and misinformation increase. At this point we can really tell if videos we watch are real or not. So we must be careful to not fall into scams. This also eliminates the meaning of videos of proof. In court a person can easily create a video of a innocent person doing a crime, in future even with AI decrypting we wouldn't be able to crack it. It will also be able to create fake videos of real people for blackmail or manipulation.Imagine five years from now! 

Here are some videos generated by Google Veo 3:
