The Weird World of Veo V3: A Roommate’s Perspective
Meet Kevin, the unsuspecting roommate of Dan, who’s become totally obsessed with Google’s latest AI video generator. According to Kevin, Dan blew his rent money on a Veo V3 subscription — and generated over a thousand videos in a single day.
So what’s the hype?
With Google Veo V3, you’re not just animating still images into video — now you’re adding voices, creating narratives, and building AI-powered skits that feel eerily human. You can make your character:
- Go shopping
- Hunt for the Loch Ness monster
- Encounter Bigfoot
- Jump out of airplanes
- Compete in boxing matches
Basically, Veo V3 enables near-endless possibilities.

But There’s a Catch — The Audio Isn’t You
Despite the fun, there’s still a big limitation: you have no real control over how your character sounds. Even though Google Veo V3 now supports audio, the voices are AI-generated placeholders, and often sound… off.
“According to Veo, this is how my voice sounds. But this is how my actual voice sounds.”
This mismatch ruins immersion — especially if you’re using the tool for content creation, branding, or storytelling.
But don’t worry — there’s a powerful solution: 11 Labs voice cloning.
Step-by-Step: How to Make AI Videos with Your Own Voice
🔧 Step 1: Create a Project in Google Flow
