    New model: Gemini Robotics ER 2

    Gemini Robotics ER 2 in public preview: Released two new embodied reasoning model endpoints for robotics: gemini-robotics-er-2-preview: Advanced spatial reasoning, agentic code execution, multi-step tool orchestration, video moment finding, progress classification, and multi-robot coordination. gemini-robotics-er-2-streaming-preview: Optimized for real-time text streaming using the Live API, enabling low-latency robot agents with bidirectional audio and video input. Both model endpoints accept text, image, video, and audio inputs and support function calling with blocking behavior for physical robot actions. To get started, see the Gemini Robotics ER overview. For real-time streaming use cases, see Robotics with streaming.

  5. Gemini app

    Create and edit with your voice, anywhere on your desktop with Gemini on macOS

    What: We’re introducing a new way to work with Gemini using just your voice, right where you are. Press and hold the Fn key to dictate into your active window and have Gemini transcribe your spoken words into clean, polished text directly at your cursor. You can also enable Gemini reasoning in the app settings to do even more based on screen context—such as highlighting text to rewrite or reformat it, selecting local files to extract information, or generating images anywhere you want. The new feature is rolling out today in English to all users on the Gemini macOS app. Download the app at gemini.google/desktop. Why: Speaking your thoughts lets you work at the speed of thought—allowing you to ramble, hesitate, or self-correct while Gemini seamlessly makes sense of it. By taking in your screen context and outputting results directly at your cursor in any app, Gemini works right alongside you to keep you in your flow.
