Perplexity AI chatbot on X can now generate a video with just a tweet - complete with visuals, voice, and music.

Let’s explore how it works - and what it means for the future of storytelling. 👇

 🔥Today’s big AI story

Video content creation is now as easy as tweeting - thanks to Perplexity’s AI.

Perplexity, the AI search engine, just rolled out a video generation feature on X. You simply tag @AskPerplexity in a post and add a short prompt. In return, you get a fully AI-generated 8-second video - complete with visuals, music, and narration.

That’s it. No app. No login. Just a post on X.

Users have already flooded the feed with requests like:

• “An animated samosa party”

• “Pikachu vs. Goku”

• “Napoleon playing guitar in Times Square”

This isn't just fun — it’s a sign of where things are headed.

How it works
📹 To create a video:

1. Post on X (Twitter) and tag @AskPerplexity

2. Include a simple creative prompt (e.g., “a cat solving a Rubik’s cube”)

3. Wait a few minutes

4. You’ll get an AI-generated 8-second clip with synced audio and visuals

Here’s the tweet from Perplexity-

Why this matters
We’re witnessing three big shifts:

🔄 1. Creation is now conversational
You don’t need tools, templates, or timelines. You just need an idea and a sentence.

🎨 2. Storytelling is going micro and visual
8 seconds. That’s all it takes to communicate an idea. Great for short-form platforms like X, IG, TikTok, and even B2B explainers.

🚀 3. Creation and distribution are merging
You don’t make a video and then post it. The platform is both your canvas and your stage.

What this means for you
Whether you're a marketer, innovator, or content creator, this is a call to experiment:

• Try making mini-explainers or product intros with just one sentence

• Test audience reactions to ideas using microcontent

• Show thought leadership not just with words, but with short visuals
  
  💡 Example idea

  Prompt: “AI explains how inflation works to a 10-year-old”
  Outcome: A fun 8-second video that could engage an audience far better than a 3-minute read.
