GeminiApp · x · 2026-08-29
Google announced two updates for Gemini:
- Video Generation: Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash now supports "video extension," allowing users to seamlessly continue existing videos to build continuous, dynamic storylines.
- In-Car Integration: Gemini is now integrated into Waymo as an in-car assistant. Users can use voice commands to control the cabin or learn about their surroundings. This feature operates independently of the Waymo Driver and remains inactive until engaged.
