Meta AI Unveils New Video Editing Tools with 50 Presets for U.S. Users
Meta is making a bold move into the world of AI-powered video editing. The tech giant has launched a new set of tools under its Meta AI platform that allows users to enhance short video clips with 50 predesigned prompts. These AI features let users tweak aspects like outfit designs, settings, and overall aesthetics—all with just a few taps.
Currently available only to users in the United States, the editing options are accessible through the Meta AI app, the Meta.ai website, and a newly introduced standalone video-editing app called Edits. Positioned as a direct competitor to apps like CapCut and Google's generative AI features, Edits aims to simplify the video editing process for everyday users and creators alike.
The video presets, which are limited to clips up to 10 seconds in length, offer a diverse range of effects—from giving your footage a vintage comic book appearance to altering a subject's outfit into a space-themed suit or adding moody rainy-day lighting.
According to Meta, these presets were crafted based on feedback from creators, with a focus on making video editing intuitive and reflective of real creative demands. 'We built this so that everyone can experiment creatively and make fun, interesting videos to share with their friends, family, and followers,' the company said in a blog post.
While Meta hasn't confirmed whether the tool uses its Movie Gen AI models directly, it did cite them as a source of inspiration for the new editing features. Once the edits are applied, users can immediately share their content on Facebook and Instagram, keeping engagement within Meta's ecosystem.
Though limited in scope for now, Meta has indicated that more customisation options will be released later this year. These upcoming updates aim to empower users with more flexibility and creativity in how they produce content.
With this rollout, Meta joins a growing list of tech companies pushing AI video tools into the mainstream, responding to the increasing demand for fast, accessible content creation solutions. By reducing the complexity of traditional video editing software, Meta hopes to attract a broader audience—from casual users to professional content creators.
As short-form video continues to dominate social platforms, Meta's investment in AI-driven tools signals its ambition to stay ahead in the evolving digital content race.

Meta wanted to buy a $30 billion AI startup: report. What it is trying instead.
Meta Platforms stock has climbed this year in response to the social media company's progress with artificial-intelligence. Now, it is reportedly stepping up its efforts, trying to acquire a major AI start-up and recruiting new AI executives. Meta looked to buy Safe Superintelligence earlier this year but was rebuffed by its founder Ilya Sutskever, CNBC reported late Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter. Safe Superintelligence was valued at $30 billion in a funding round in March. Meta and Safe Superintelligence didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. On the face of it, such an acquisition would have been an odd move. Safe Superintelligence hasn't released any products, as it concentrates on developing supersmart AI. Meta has also been getting along perfectly well on its own, with its stock up 19% so far this year. The real attraction of such a deal likely would have been to get Sutskever and his key employees on board. Sutskever was previously chief scientist at OpenAI, where he helped develop the technology behind ChatGPT. He left OpenAI last year following a break with its CEO Sam Altman, and subsequently launched Safe Superintelligence. Thwarted in his efforts to bring Sutskever on board, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has instead negotiated to recruit Safe Superintelligence's CEO Daniel Gross, as well as former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman, according to CNBC. Gross and Friedman are partners in the investment fund NFDG, which has backed several AI start-ups. So far, Meta has relied on in-house AI models, as opposed to acquiring or funding an AI start-up as Microsoft has done with OpenAI and has with Anthropic. However, there have been signs that Zuckerberg feels Meta's AI team needs bolstering. Last week, Meta completed an investment in Scale AI. The Wall Street Journal reported that Meta would pump $14 billion into the data-labeling company in exchange for a 49% stake and that Scale AI founder Alexandr Wang would join Meta. The bigger picture here is that multiple AI companies have delayed the releases of their next flagship models amid concerns they don't show sufficient improvement. That suggests the industry's 'scaling law," the idea that larger and more complex models are automatically more intelligent, is breaking down. Meta is among those struggling to make a breakthrough. Its 'Behemoth" model, originally meant to be released in April, is being delayed until fall or later, according to the Journal. The response from AI companies has been the development of so-called reasoning models that break down problems step-by-step. However, a recent paper from researchers at Apple found 'fundamental limitations" in such models. At tasks beyond a certain level of complexity, these AIs suffered 'complete accuracy collapse," according to the researchers. That suggests the industry will need to adopt new techniques to push AI to the next level of intelligence. Meta will hope that its new recruits can get there first.

The AI assistant supports a range of use cases, from monitoring performance to checking environmental conditions.
