How do AI models generate videos?

Sure, the clips you see in demo reels are cherry-picked to showcase a company’s models at the top of their game. But with the technology in the hands of more users than ever before—Sora and Veo 3 are available in the ChatGPT and Gemini apps for paying subscribers—even the most casual filmmaker can now knock out something remarkable. The downside is that creators are competing with AI slop, and social media feeds are filling up with faked news footage. Video generation also uses up a huge amount

Here’s your first look at Gemini’s dedicated space for all creations (APK teardown)

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is testing a new space in the Gemini app to store all media generated with it. The “Created by you” section stores all Gemini-generated images, videos, and even deep research documents and code. ChatGPT has a similar feature, called Library, which makes it easier to find media created by it rather than sifting through chat history. Image generation has long been one of the most compelling and entertaining use cases for AI. The widespread Studio

The Gemini app just got the one feature everyone was asking for

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google has updated the Gemini app to handle any file type. This includes audio files, which was the top request. Audio length can be up to 10 minutes for free users. Around the beginning of August, we found evidence that Google was working on adding a highly requested feature to Gemini. Specifically, the AI app was getting support for audio file uploads. Fast forward to today, and the function is now live on Android, iOS, and on the web. Don’t want to mi

Google wants Gemini to keep the conversation going, and here’s how it’s going to do it

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is testing a feature within Gemini that suggests follow-up questions. The suggestion prompts help users explore topics and engage in in-depth conversations to get more out of their AI interactions. The feature seems to be a limited test for now. If you’re old enough to have used search engines before their AI-fication, you’re most likely using your AI digital assistant more like a search engine and less like a digital assistant. That means more

I Tried Gemini's 'Nano Bananas' for Image Editing. The AI Slipups Were Obvious

After seeing all the banana-fanfare for Google's newest generative AI tool, I knew I had to take it for a spin.

In the few weeks it's been out, people have created over 200 million AI images, and over 10 million people have signed up to use the Gemini app, according

Gemini for Home isn’t enough to revive Google’s forgotten Nest speakers

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Google Nest speakers are neat little utility tools that let you holler at Google Assistant anywhere in the house — add something to your shopping list before it slips your mind or run the Roomba in a certain room. They’re so handy that a lot of us just grab Nest Minis by the dozen and place them across our homes so that we can call Assistant from literally anywhere. However, Google’s home efforts have been stagnant for a few years, to the point where they’ve

Google Gemini dubbed ‘high risk’ for kids and teens in new safety assessment

Common Sense Media, a kids-safety-focused nonprofit offering ratings and reviews of media and technology, released its risk assessment of Google’s Gemini AI products on Friday. While the organization found that Google’s AI clearly told kids it was a computer, not a friend — something that’s associated with helping drive delusional thinking and psychosis in emotionally vulnerable individuals — it did suggest that there was room for improvement across several other fronts. Notably, Common Sense s

7 features I’m excited to try when Gemini lands on my Google Home speakers

Adam Molina / Android Authority Gemini support on Google Home and Nest speakers has been a long time coming. The feature has been in preview testing for some lucky US users with specific voices for months now, but Google just announced the exact date when it’ll start showing up for real: October 1. Although this will still be an early access, I can’t wait to get my proverbial hands on it because I’m sick of Google Assistant’s glitches. The inconsistency, frequent bugs, and silly downgrades hav

TCL's QM9K Mini-LED TV Is Super Bright and Has Google Gemini Onboard

I pay for Google Gemini, but GPT-5 has convinced me to switch to ChatGPT and here’s why

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority ChatGPT has become the Xerox of the AI world, but OpenAI no longer has the stage to itself. Google has been pushing Gemini deeper into its ecosystem, and every few weeks it feels like another rival pops up with promises of being faster, smarter, or more useful. So when the latest GPT-5 model launched last month, it felt like a release OpenAI couldn’t afford to get wrong. While OpenAI’s benchmarks claim that GPT-5 is better than the competition, the numbers o

The first Google TVs with Gemini are finally here

TL;DR The TCL QM9K series is the first Google TV lineup to debut Gemini, marking the replacement of Google Assistant. The TVs include an Ambient Display mode powered by a presence sensor, automatically waking up when someone enters the room. The TVs, which will hit retail later this month, are available in various sizes up to 98 inches and with top-tier specs like HDR6500 brightness and LD6000 local dimming zones. Gemini on Google TV devices was first announced at CES 2025. It promised to rep

Venezuela Claims Trump’s Video of Strike Against Suspected Drug Smugglers Is AI

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that his government had conducted a “kinetic strike” against suspected drug smugglers from Venezuela in a boat traveling in the Caribbean. The strike killed 11 people, according to Trump, and he claims they were all gang members. None of those points has been confirmed, and drug smuggling is not a capital offense, making Trump’s strike almost certainly illegal under international law. But Venezuela had a rather interesting reply. A government minister is

Google closer to powering new Siri and Apple’s AI search tool as Perplexity fades

While they’re not exactly tying the knot yet, Siri and Gemini are making plans to spend a lot more time together. That’s according to a new report that details the current state of Apple’s delayed effort to upgrade Siri for the modern era. Apple has considered Google’s Gemini AI as a potential solution to fuel the AI-powered version of Siri that’s currently in development. No decision has been made, however, as Apple also tests its own AI models as well as OpenAI and Anthropic models. The new
