Find these and other effects by navigating to the Effects ✨icon in the Shorts camera, and tap on AI to browse all generative effects. We’ll be expanding to more creators globally in the coming weeks. Photo to video and generative effects are powered by Veo 2, and we’re excited to bring Veo 3 to YouTube Shorts later this summer\! P.S. [Google Photos](http://blog.google/products/photos/photo-to-video-remix-create-tab) is also launching a photo to video feature, adding to our suite of similar tools which also includes [Gemini](https://blog.google/products/gemini/photo-to-video/). Discover our latest creation tools in AI playground**: AI playground is your new home for creation. Inside, you'll find our latest gen AI creation tools, a gallery of inspirational examples, and pre-filled prompts to help you instantly generate videos, images, music, and more. Find AI playground by tapping the create button and then the sparkle icon in the top right corner. It’s available now for everyone in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand to start. Across these tools, we use [SynthID](https://deepmind.google/science/synthid/) watermarks and [clear labels](https://blog.youtube/inside-youtube/our-approach-to-responsible-ai-innovation/) to indicate that these creations were generated with AI. While these tools are here to make creating even more fun, remember that your unique creativity is what truly makes Shorts shine!
