1. The Demonstration
Elon Musk shared a short AI-generated video on X (formerly Twitter) using Grok Imagine. The prompt he used was:
“A park ranger taking a photo of a family of four adults and children dressed in shorts and t-shirts posing by their camper van in a national park, with a smiling sasquatch standing in the woods. Everyone is eating bananas.”
· The result: A whimsical, short video clip where all elements came to life.
· Purpose: Showcases Grok’s new ability to generate dynamic, interactive video content from text prompts.
2. Grok’s Key Upgrades
· Video Generation: Previously focused on static images, Grok now converts text prompts into animated video sequences.
· Audio Integration: Musk highlighted that "Grok videos can now talk," enabling characters in AI-generated videos to speak lines or interact with dialogue.
· Interactive Content: Example shared includes an anime character introducing itself:
“Welcome to Grok Imagine, my name is Anne.”
3. How to Use Grok Imagine for Video
