Google's Gemini Omni can generate 'anything from any input,' starting with video

Key points

• Google didn't forget AI creators in its latest round of Gemini announcements as part of Google I/O.
• The company just officially revealed Gemini Omni, a new model that can "create anything from any input — starting with video," according to Google.
• The first model called Gemini Omni Flash is rolling out today to the Gemini app, Google Flow and YouTube Shorts.
• Google called Gemini Omni "the next step" up from Nano Banana and, presumably, its current video generator, Veo 3.1. It lets you "combine images, audio, video and text as input and generate high-quality videos grounded in Gemini's real-world knowledge," according to the tech giant.
• You can then edit those videos through natural conversation, with each instruction building on the last to keep characters and other elements consistent.
