it’s in gemini, just create it in ai studio. oh, that’s for your personal google one account. for workspace you need gemini business. no, not gemini advanced, that’s ai pro now. unless you need ai ultra. oh agents? you do that in spark actually. no, not gemini api managed agents, that’s different. for coding use jules. unless you mean the agentic ide, that’s antigravity. no, that’s the old antigravity, download the new one. actually gemini cli is being deprecated, use antigravity cli. no the flash model is smarter than the pro model. unless you need pro. if it’s video, use flow. no, flow uses veo. no, nano banana is images. actually that’s in gemini now. unless you’re in search, then it’s ai mode. no, research is notebooklm. anyway it’s all very simple.

Introducing Gemini Spark ✨

It’s your 24/7 personal AI agent that helps you navigate your digital life, taking action on your behalf, and under your direction.

🧠 It runs on Gemini 3.5 and is built on @Antigravity, so it can perform long-running tasks easily in the background.

⏱️ And because it runs on dedicated virtual machines on Google Cloud, you don’t even need to keep your laptop open.

🧰 Spark will integrate seamlessly with Google tools, and soon with third parties through MCP.

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

We want to help scientists discover their next breakthrough with AI.

Gemini for Science is our new suite of experimental tools to help them explore more hypotheses, validate work at scale, unpack literature with ease, and more 🧵

in france, we use one app to find a terasse with the best sunlight, and the second app to find the cheapest pint of beer in that area

if you're not aperomaxxing with tech then what is it good for?

📜 💡**New paper & dataset** Our paper [to be presented as a spotlight at NeurIPS’25] presents DIVE, a novel dataset for aligning GenAI models to pluralistic viewpoints. DIVE and accompanying experiments advocate for a shift in both: alignment strategies and safety evaluations.

Rolling out today we are launching Nano Banana Pro, the world’s best image model built to move beyond casual creation and into a new era of studio-quality, functional design.

Nano Banana Pro enables a new level of precision and creative control, transforming the way you bring ideas to life. Here are a couple of our favorite new features:

— Text rendering and translation: Generate crystal-clear text directly within your images. With the model’s advanced language understanding, you can even translate and regenerate visuals with localized text.

— World knowledge: By connecting to Search’s vast knowledge base, Nano Banana Pro generates factually accurate diagrams and realistic product placements, making it an invaluable tool for learning and communication.

We just dropped Nano Banana Pro, built on Gemini 3. 🍌

With state-of-the-art text rendering, vast world knowledge and studio-quality creative controls, Gemini 3 Pro Image can create and edit more complex visuals, infographics and more. Here’s what’s under the hood. 🧵

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

This is Gemini 3: our most intelligent model that helps you learn, build and plan anything.

It comes with state-of-the-art reasoning capabilities, world-leading multimodal understanding, and enables new agentic coding experiences. 🧵

🚨 Google quietly dropped a VIDEO AI bombshell just 2 hours ago.

People are calling it Photoshop + TikTok mashed into Workspace.

Image generation with Gemini just got a bananas upgrade and is the new state-of-the-art image generation and editing model. 🤯

From photorealistic masterpieces to mind-bending fantasy worlds, you can now natively produce, edit and refine visuals with new levels of reasoning, control and creativity.

A quick dive into Gemini 2.5 Flash’s capabilities 🧵

[Jeff Dean @JeffDean]

Our latest Gemini image generation and editing model is quite good (see the examples in the thread below). It lets you indulge in a bit of creative fun, helps you make new business cards, etc!

Gemini's new #nanobanana image editing makes it easy to isolate a single building or object and turn it into an isometric model.

Just open Gemini, upload your image, and prompt "Make an isometric model of the [object] only."

Here are some examples for inspo 🧵

We’ve developed Gemini Diffusion: our state-of-the-art text diffusion model.

Instead of predicting text directly, it learns to generate outputs by refining noise, step-by-step. This helps it excel at coding and math, where it can iterate over solutions quickly. #GoogleIO

[Jack Rae @jack_w_rae]

The Gemini Diffusion release feels like a landmark moment.

For text generation, autoregressive models have always outperformed diffusion models from a quality perspective. It wasn't clear that the gap could ever be closed.

The team behind this have kept laser focused, broken through a lot of research and engineering challenges. The result is a fascinating and powerful model that is also lightning fast.

We announced a lot of updates coming to Gemini at #GoogleIO. Catch up on all the news in the thread below 🧵

[Michela Paganini @WonderMicky]

It’s finally #GoogleIO time and I’m so glad to see tons of cool innovations finally shared with the community. My personal favorites:
- Gemini text diffusion ⚡️
- AI Mode in Search (so useful to me!) 🔎
- Glasses + Android XR 🥽
- New Veo & Imagen 🎥🎨
- Thought summary in API 💭

[Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai]

At #GoogleIO, we shared how decades of AI research have now become reality. 

From a total reimagining of Search to Agent Mode, Veo 3 and more, Gemini season will be the most exciting era of AI yet. 

Some highlights 🧵
