Bing brings AI video tool to everyone for free, uses OpenAI Sora to generate AI clips
Microsoft has introduced a new AI video creation tool called Bing Video Creator. This new feature allows users to generate short AI videos simply by describing what they want to see. The feature works similarly to Bing Image Creator, which creates images using AI based on users' prompts. The video tool is powered by OpenAI's Sora the moment, Bing Video Creator can create five-second clips from text prompts and is available for free through the Bing mobile app. Desktop access is expected to roll out soon. Microsoft says the new tool will let users skip complex editing software and create simple video clips using plain language. 'Whether you're letting your imagination run wild, bringing a story to life, or looking for that perfect video to communicate what you're thinking, Bing Video Creator puts the power of video creation at your fingertips,' says Microsoft in the official blog post to use Bing Video CreatorTo use Bing Video Creator, you will need to download the Bing mobile app, which is available for both iOS and Android users. Within the app, you can either tap the bottom-right menu and select 'Video Creator' or type a phrase like 'Create a video of' into the search bar. After entering a prompt—such as 'Otter and a capybara drink cocktails while on holiday in Hawaii, sitting on a beach hammock'—the new AI video generator will begin creating a video that matches your description. Snippet of the video created using Bing video creator Microsoft notes that the quality of the output depends on how descriptive your prompt is. A vague request like 'a person running' might not produce a useful clip, but something like 'a man in a blue tracksuit running along a foggy mountain trail at sunrise, in slow motion' gives the AI more to work with. Including details such as setting, motion, objects, and tone improves the Bing video creator can also generate up to five seconds of video and is created in vertical format (9:16). Microsoft says that a horizontal format (16:9) is in development. Users can generate up to three videos at a time; if all slots are in use, you must wait for one to finish before starting the video is generated, you will get a notification. You can then download the AI-generated video and share it via a link, or post it on social media. The videos will remain available for 90 days, so will be able to revisit or reuse safety measures in placeOf course, just like other AI tools, this new AI raises questions of safety — and to address these concerns, Microsoft says it has built protections into the new video generation tool. The platform will block prompts flagged as risky and will notify users about the same. Each video generated by the AI tool will also carry digital credentials identifying it as AI-generated, in line with the C2PA says it is relying on both OpenAI's safety filters in Sora and its own additional safeguards to minimise the risk of misuse.

Tip from AI image generator leads to Columbus man facing child pornography charges
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – Police have arrested a man from the Far East Side on suspicion of possessing child sexual abuse material. According to court documents, the Franklin County Sheriff's Office took Timothy Newton, 58, into custody after investigators received a tip from Microsoft's Bing Image Creator. Bing Image Creator, an AI service that makes images similar to what a user provides, recognized child sexual abuse material provided from upload or URL. Detectives confirmed that six such images were uploaded between January 2023 and July 2024. The cybertip depicted three children. Investigators from Cuyahoga County submitted a subpoena to Charter Communications in 2023, which identified an IP subscriber as Newton, who was listed as living in the Laurel Canyon neighborhood. Another subpoena was submitted on March 20, and five days later, it was confirmed Newton was the listed subscriber to that IP address for 2 1/2 years. Newton was arrested Wednesday as a residential search warrant was carried out. Police said Newton admitted to looking at child sexual abuse material on his laptop, which included images of toddlers. He is charged with two counts of pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor, second-degree felonies, and was issued a $75,000 bond Thursday in Franklin County Municipal Court.
