Google has rolled out a set of major updates to its Gemini app, aiming to widen its appeal and offer users more ways to interact with AI. Announced at the annual Google I\/O 2025 event on Tuesday, the updates include tools for visual help, media generation, and research \u2014 now available on both Android and iOS. Here is every AI update announced by the American tech giant:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Gemini Live, which lets users share their camera feed or screen during conversations, is now available for free. The feature is designed to help users show what they mean instead of typing out questions. According to Google, conversations using Gemini Live <\/a>tend to be longer than text-only chats, which the company attributes to the more interactive format.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Google plans to integrate the tool more deeply into its wider ecosystem in the coming weeks. Users will be able to link Gemini Live with apps like Maps, Calendar, Tasks, and Keep. For example, asking about restaurant options may link directly to Google Maps, or a group chat could lead to an event being added to Calendar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gemini now includes Imagen 4<\/a>, a new image generation model that supports improved visual detail and better text rendering within images. Users can create graphics and visuals for various uses, including presentations and social media posts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n For video creation, Veo 3<\/i> is being introduced. It supports text-to-video generation and can also add ambient sounds and basic character dialogue. Veo 3 is currently available only toGoogle AI Ultra<\/i><\/a> subscribers in the U.S., limiting access for international users or those on the free plan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Deep Research feature now allows users to upload personal files \u2014 such as PDFs or images \u2014 to be included in AI-generated reports. The goal is to provide more personalised and context-rich results by combining private and public data sources. Google <\/a>has announced plans to expand this functionality to include content from Google Drive and Gmail in the near future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Project Astra showcases the real-time capabilities of Google\u2019s Gemini models, with the initial features now integrated into Gemini Live. <\/a>This upgraded version can actively use a device\u2019s camera to interpret on-screen content in real-time. Among the latest improvements are a more natural, expressive voice powered by native audio generation, enhanced memory functionality, and advanced computer control features.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n During the keynote at Google I\/O 2025, a live demonstration highlighted Gemini Live\u2019s ability to interact fluidly with users\u2014responding with expressive speech, handling interruptions seamlessly, and continuing conversations without losing context. It also showcased multitasking abilities such as making business calls, scrolling through documents, and browsing the web, all in real-time.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Google Flow is an AI-powered filmmaking tool designed for creatives to effortlessly generate cinematic videos. It combines Google’s advanced models \u2014 Veo (video generation), Imagen (image generation), and Gemini (natural language understanding) \u2014 to help users turn everyday language prompts into high-quality visual scenes. Flow enables consistent character and scene creation, allowing seamless integration across multiple clips. It’s built to make storytelling faster, intuitive, and visually stunning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n At the Google I\/O 2025 event, Pichai<\/a> unveiled a new feature called Agent Mode for the Gemini app. This upcoming experimental tool, initially available to subscribers, is designed to handle complex tasks and planning on the user\u2019s behalf. With Agent Mode, Gemini moves beyond simple responses to take on more autonomous actions\u2014organising, scheduling, and executing multi-step tasks. Google also announced that these agentic AI capabilities will extend to Chrome, Search, and the Gemini platform, marking a significant step toward AI that can proactively manage tasks rather than just react to prompts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Jules is an autonomous, agentic coding assistant that works directly with your codebase. Unlike traditional code-completion tools, Jules clones your repository into a secure Google Cloud VM<\/a>, understands your project context, and independently handles tasks like writing tests, fixing bugs, building features, and more. It works asynchronously, so you can focus elsewhere while it completes tasks and returns with a detailed plan, reasoning, and code changes. Jules is now in public beta and prioritises privacy, keeping your code secure and isolated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nImagen 4<\/h2>\n
