Google researchers introduced a unified multi-agent framework that generates temporally consistent long-form video narratives, addressing identity drift and cascading failures in linear AI pipelines. Built on Gemini and Veo, it includes Co-Director, CANVAS, A²RD, and VQQA, treating long-form generation as global optimization and world-state tracking, with SynthID watermarking inherited.
