Canva integrates Google's Veo 3 for AI video generation with in-sync audio

Digital graphic design and editing platform Canva has announced the integration of Google's latest video generation model, Veo 3, into its suite of tools. The company stated that Canva AI, its proprietary suite of artificial intelligence features, now enables users to generate eight-second video clips with synchronised audio using the Veo 3 model. The feature is also accessible via Leonardo.Ai, a Canva-owned creative platform.
Unveiled last month at Google's I/O event, Veo 3 is the latest version of Google's video generation model. It not only produces high-quality visuals from text prompts but also generates corresponding audio—including ambient sounds and character dialogue.
Canva confirmed that video generation with Veo 3 is included in existing subscription plans. Paid users can access the tool through the Canva AI section on both the web and mobile app, using descriptive text prompts to generate video content.
Earlier this month, Google began expanding access to Veo 3 for its AI Pro subscribers. Previously limited to users on the Ultra plan, Veo 3 is now available via Flow—Google's AI-powered video editing platform—and the Gemini mobile app with limited generations for Pro-tier subscribers.

3 Air India Officials Removed, Aviation Body Threatens To Withdraw Licence

New Delhi: Civil aviation regulator DGCA has ordered the immediate removal of three senior Air India officials, including a divisional vice president, from all responsibilities related to flight crew scheduling and rostering. The directive is among the sternest interventions in recent months involving a full-service scheduled airline. The DGCA has also asked the Tata Group-owned carrier to initiate internal disciplinary proceedings against the three unnamed officials without further delay. Failure to do so would result in severe action, including the possibility of the airline losing its operating permission. The DGCA's action stems from its audit of Air India's Integrated Operations Control Centre (IOCC), which oversees crew deployment across the airline's domestic and international network. According to the show cause notice issued by the regulator, two flights operated by Air India - AI133 from Bengaluru to London Heathrow on May 16 and May 17 - exceeded the maximum flight duty time limitation of 10 hours. The operation of these flights violated Para 6.1.3 of the Civil Aviation Requirement (CAR), Section 7, Series J, Part III, Issue III, dated 24 April 2019, according to the show cause notice. The flights in question were not emergency or exceptional operations. The DGCA contends they were regular long-haul services. The DGCA issued a show cause notice to Air India's Accountable Manager, typically a high-ranking official. The notice demands an explanation within seven days from the date of receipt, asking why enforcement action should not be initiated under relevant provisions. "Failure to submit your reply within the stipulated period shall result in the matter being decided ex parte based on the evidence available on record," the regulator warned. Responding to the directive, Air India acknowledged the seriousness of the observations made by the DGCA. "We acknowledge the regulator's directive and have implemented the order. In the interim, the company's Chief Operations Officer will provide direct oversight to the Integrated Operations Control Centre (IOCC). Air India is committed to ensuring that there is total adherence to safety protocols and standard practices," Air India said in a statement. The IOCC is a key component in any airline's structure, responsible for real-time crew management, flight dispatch, weather monitoring, and route planning. Missteps or regulatory non-compliance at this level can directly affect passenger safety and crew welfare. Understanding The Rules 1. As per DGCA norms, pilots operating in a cockpit must meet specific qualification criteria to be paired with each other. These criteria include factors such as the number of flying hours each pilot has logged, so that the combined total of experience in the cockpit meets a prescribed minimum threshold. 2. Both pilots must also be qualified for specific operational requirements, for example, low-visibility operations, 'Atlantic qualifications', or clearances for operating in high-altitude or critical airfields such as Leh or Ladakh. 3. Valid Licenses: It is mandatory for the airline to ensure that both pilots at the controls meet all licensing requirements. Their licenses must be current, and all mandated refresher courses and proficiency checks must be up to date. 4. Systemic Failures: There are indications of repeated violations of Flight Duty Time Limitation (FDTL) norms. These include requirements to provide pilots with adequate rest before a flight and compliance with similar guidelines. Questions Being Raised 1. Why are these violations not flagged by the software systems? 2. Why are such issues not preempted or prevented before pilots operate flights? 3. This points to the possibility of manual overrides of automated systems. Is the rostering process being manipulated?

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says he loves Google, Apple: 'I don't think this is...'

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently shared one of the "best compliments" he received about his company, while also revealing a perspective on some of the world's largest tech giants and industry rivalries. While expressing affection for companies like Google , Apple and others, Altman highlighted a unique quality he believes sets OpenAI apart. "This was actually one of the best nicest compliments I ever heard about OpenAI," Altman said in a podcast hosted by his brother Jack Altman. "Just someone said it's the only tech company that has ever not felt somewhat adversarial to me," he recounted. Altman says 'criticism' of Google, Apple and Meta 'unfair' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo Altman elaborated on this sentiment, painting a picture of how other major players, despite their undeniable utility, can sometimes feel at odds with user interests. "You have like Google trying to show me worse and worse search results and show me ads. I love Google, I love all these companies. I don't think this is like totally fair," he quickly clarified, acknowledging his appreciation for their contributions. "You have like Meta trying to like hack my brain and get me to keep scrolling. You have Apple that made this phone that I love but is like, you know, bombarding me with notifications and like distracting me from everything else and I can't quit," he continued. In contrast, Altman sees OpenAI's flagship product, ChatGPT , as fundamentally different. "And then you have like ChatGPT and I feel like it's like kind of just trying to help me with whatever I ask and that's kind of a nice thing," he concluded, emphasising the unadulterated helpfulness he perceives in his company's AI. Sam Altman also noted two things that will dominate in the upcoming years: Self driving cars and humanoid robots.

What is the ‘soft war' version of the Israel-Iran war that's escalating tensions?

As military tensions between Israel and Iran reach new heights, a parallel 'soft war' is raging online, where artificial intelligence-generated disinformation is shaping global perceptions of the conflict on an unprecedented scale. Investigators warn that millions are being exposed to fabricated images and videos, making it increasingly difficult to separate fact from fiction in real-time. This digital onslaught has seen over 100 million views on just the three most viral fake videos, according to BBC Verify . These AI-generated clips and images, widely shared across platforms like X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram , depict scenes such as Israeli F-35 jets being shot down and missile strikes on Tel Aviv. Forensic analysis has confirmed these are fabrications, often created using advanced AI tools or repurposed from video games and unrelated past events. This digital barrage began after Israel launched airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites on June 13, prompting retaliatory missile and drone attacks from Iran. Almost immediately, a surge of AI-generated videos and images flooded social media , purporting to show dramatic battlefield victories, destroyed aircraft, and devastated cities.

Iranian state media and official Israeli channels have both been caught sharing misleading or outdated visuals, further worsening the information environment. The consequences are profound: not only are public perceptions being manipulated, but both sides of the conflict are leveraging these tactics. Pro-Iranian accounts, such as the rapidly growing 'Daily Iran Military,' which does not appear to have any direct links to Tehran authorities, experienced a remarkable surge in popularity—its follower count on X soared from just over 700,000 on June 13 to 1.4 million by June 19, marking an 85% jump in less than a week. Meanwhile, some pro-Israeli sources have recycled old protest footage, presenting it as fresh evidence of unrest in Iran. Live Events Experts say this is the first major conflict where generative AI is being deployed at such a scale to influence narratives. Emmanuelle Saliba of Get Real calls it 'unprecedented,' while Lisa Kaplan, CEO of Alethea, notes that none of the viral footage showing downed Israeli jets has been authenticated. Instead, these clips exploit the speed and reach of social media to amplify falsehoods. The spread of disinformation is further accelerated by so-called 'engagement farming,' where accounts—many with verified status—post sensational content to attract followers and monetize their reach. Analysts have also traced some of these networks to foreign influence operations, particularly Russian-linked groups seeking to undermine Western military credibility.
