Grok AI generates short videos from text or images

X has released Grok Imagine, a feature that turns text descriptions, single images, or up to seven reference images into short video clips. Clips come in aspect ratios like 16:9 for landscape or 9:16 for vertical, at 480p or 720p quality. An Extend Video option lets users chain new clips from a selected frame, matching motion, lighting, positioning, and even audio for smooth sequences. Finished videos download directly, save to a library, or post straight to X.
Video content for social platforms required piecing together assets in separate editing apps, often taking hours for a polished minute-long clip. Creators rarely bothered beyond static images because the handoff between tools killed momentum. Grok Imagine handles generation, style matching via references, and extension in one place, producing post-ready output without exports or tweaks. This shifts repeatable workflows from sporadic big efforts to daily clips, especially on X where short videos drive engagement.
Analysis
Sign into Grok on the web or app and generate a 10-second video from the prompt 'a busy professional checking email on a laptop in a cafe'. Extend it from the last frame to test continuity.
