Microsoft's research division has launched a new artificial intelligence model that can take a still image and turn it into a gif in a matter of seconds. 

Pix2Gif uses the same type of diffusion model found in many of the AI text-to-video models like Runway and Pika Labs but takes an "image translation" approach.
