Our office is a wild place

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

Excited to share what we’ve been working on for the past few months! Hope it’s worth the wait, and this is just the start🚀

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

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 🧵

Veo 3.1 Ingredients to Video is receiving a major upgrade! Now supporting portrait mode (9:16), improved character consistency and expressivity.

We've come a long way since we started working on this over a year ago ���

Gemini 3 Flash is live. ⚡️
We’ve packed Gemini 3’s Pro-grade reasoning into a leaner model with Flash-level latency, efficiency, and cost.
It's my favorite model to use – the latency feels like a real conversation, with the deep intelligence intact.
Available in the API, Gemini App, and Search. Give it a spin.

Excited to share Veo Robotics!

We illustrate how we can use Veo to construct a generative robot simulator that can simulate policy execution, predict policy performance and OOD generalization!

Really enjoyed talking to @OfficialLoganK about building intelligence and progress on Gemini.

[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. 🧵

[JB Alayrac @jalayrac]

Really proud of what we have achieved with Gemini 3 🚀!

The Gemini MM team has worked relentlessly across image 🖼️ and video 🎥 from pre-training to post-training to simply deliver the best multimodal in the world 👏!

Looking forward to what you will build🫡!

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

Major upgrades 🚀🚀

[Logan Kilpatrick @OfficialLoganK]

Introducing Veo 3.1 and Veo 3.1 Fast, our latest state of the art video models with:

- richer native audio
- better cinematic styles
- reference to video
- transitions between frames
- video extensions

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

Veo reference to video from the best team❤️

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

🖼️ Ingredients to video

Give multiple reference images with different people and objects, and watch how Veo integrates these into a fully-formed scene - complete with sound.

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

Faster Veo Ingredients for more users❤️

[Thomas Kipf @tkipf]

Veo Ingredients are now available in @FlowbyGoogle to all Google AI Pro plan subscribers!

We've been working hard on this capability over the past couple of months. Excited to get this into the hands of everyone!

Get consistent characters, objects and scenes into your worlds, like in this little fun lunar exploration project I put together in just a few minutes 🧑‍🚀

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

@philipphenzler @acoadmarmon @nikoskolot Nice make up for missing the pool party!

[Medhini Narasimhan @medhini_n]

Finally, a 100M worth discussing!! Keep the videos coming 🚀🚀🚀

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

@Roni_Paiss @siggraph @DanielGaribi Woot congrats roni!

Something fun we discovered: you can use #Genie3 to step into and explore your favorite paintings.

Here's a short visit to Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks".

[Serena Zhang @sserenazz]

Checkout Genie 3, where open world exploration is made possible!

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

🔘 Real-world applications

Genie 3 offers a glimpse into new forms of entertaining or educational generative media.

Imagine seeing life through the eyes of a dinosaur 🦖 exploring the streets of ancient Greece 🏛 or learning about how search and rescue efforts are planned. 🚁

[Google Labs @GoogleLabs]

We just discovered the 🔥 COOLEST 🔥 trick in Flow that we have to share:

Instead of wordsmithing the perfect prompt, you can just... draw it. Take the image of your scene, doodle what you'd like on it (through any editing app), and then briefly describe what needs to happen (e.g. "changes happen instantly"). Using Frames to Video, Flow will understand the drawings and incorporate them into the final video.

Try it and show us what you find!
