Gemini Omni is a major leap in world understanding & multimodal editing! It can take photos, video & audio and build entirely new scenes. Over time it’ll be able to handle any input & any output - starting w/ video
You can even give it your own videos & iterate on your ideas:

Just off stage at #GoogleIO, some highlights from this morning 🧵
Gemini 3.5 Flash is available today for everyone in @antigravity and across our products and APIs.
Compared to 3.1 Pro, 3.5 Flash is better across almost all benchmarks with huge progress in coding. It’s also comparable to the best models but very fast (4x faster tokens/ second than other frontier models). And when looking at the intelligence versus output speed, it’s in a league of its own in the top right quadrant.

Welcome to Gemini 3.5 Flash, our most powerful model to date. It pushes the frontier of intelligence, speed, and cost putting 3.5 Flash in a class of its own.
We spent the last 6 months making sure Flash is great for real world use cases. It's available everywhere now!

We’re dropping Gemini Omni: our first step towards a model that can create anything from anything - starting with video.
It combines Gemini’s intelligence with our generative media systems - representing a leap forward in world understanding, multimodality, and editing 🧵

Think your vibe coding and creativity could be on the #GoogleIO main stage? Show us.
As we countdown to the start of the show, the best ideas built with @GeminiApp or @GoogleAIStudio will be featured – think protein simulators, physics engines, or math-based art. 🔢

We’re excited to unveil the name of our new London building: Platform 37. 📍
The name honors both the surrounding area’s transport heritage and "Move 37" – the critical moment where our AI system AlphaGo showed it could find novel solutions humans hadn't considered.

Ten years ago, AlphaGo’s legendary match in Seoul heralded the start of the modern era in AI. Its famous ‘Move 37’ signaled to us that AI techniques were ready to tackle real-world problems in areas like science - and ideas inspired by these methods are critical to building AGI

How could AI act as a better research collaborator? 🧑🔬
In two new papers with @GoogleResearch, we show how Gemini Deep Think uses agentic workflows to help solve research-level problems in mathematics, physics, and computer science.

You can now ask @GeminiApp: "Is this video made with AI?" 🔍
Upload the file and it will check for the SynthID watermark to help verify if it was created or edited by Google tools.
