Create AI-generated content in Shorts with Dream Screen

Note: YouTube is constantly testing new, experimental features. This feature is currently only available to a limited set of creators in certain countries. The limited experiment is intended to ensure we are taking the proper steps to learn and build for any future iterations of the product. Global audiences can use the Shorts as-is to remix them into their own Shorts.

Dream screen is an experimental AI-generated feature from YouTube that lets you bring your imagination to life. It generates unique still or animated images based on prompts that you can easily add as a green screen background to your Short.
