TikTok has introduced a new AI tool called “AI Alive” that can turn your photos into short, animated videos with just a prompt.
The tool is now available through TikTok’s Story Camera and is designed to be easy for anyone to use, even without video editing experience.
According to TikTok, AI Alive uses smart editing features to add movement and creative effects to static photos, making them look like short-form videos. After uploading a picture, users can type in a prompt, like “make this photo come alive,” and the tool will try to generate a video based on the request. The process takes a few minutes, and the results are just a few seconds long.
However, the tool isn’t perfect yet. In tests, it struggled with more creative prompts like making a cat jump in anime style. Still, it shows promise for adding simple motion and effects to personal photos.
TikTok says it has built-in safety checks to prevent harmful or policy-violating content. The tool reviews the uploaded photo, the prompt, and the final video before it’s shared. Videos made with AI Alive will also be clearly labeled as AI-generated and include special metadata to prove it.
