Google launches Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini Omni AI models

Google Unleashes Advanced AI: Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini Omni Redefine Generative Capabilities

Google has officially pulled back the curtain on its latest advancements in artificial intelligence, introducing the Gemini 3.5 family of models, headlined by Gemini 3.5 Flash, and the groundbreaking Gemini Omni, a revolutionary model capable of generating video from diverse inputs.

Gemini 3.5 Flash: Speed Meets Intelligence

The first model available from the Gemini 3.5 family, Gemini 3.5 Flash, is now accessible to all users through the Gemini app and integrated into AI Mode within Google Search. Google highlights that this model delivers exceptional intelligence, rivaling flagship models across various metrics, all while maintaining the rapid performance characteristic of the "Flash" series.

Notably, Gemini 3.5 Flash is positioned as the most potent agentic and coding Gemini model to date, surpassing even Gemini 3.1 Pro on demanding coding and agentic benchmarks. It also leads in multimodal understanding, making it the new default model for a sophisticated AI experience.

Gemini Omni: Video Creation Revolutionized

Introducing a paradigm shift in content generation, Gemini Omni is a new model designed to create videos from virtually any input. Users can seamlessly combine images, audio, video, and text to generate high-quality video content that is intelligently grounded in Gemini's extensive real-world knowledge. A key feature of Gemini Omni is its intuitive video editing capability, allowing for conversational refinement of generated scenes without losing context.

The initial offering within the Gemini Omni family is Gemini Omni Flash. This iteration empowers users to modify specific elements or the entirety of a video, facilitating multi-turn refinements that preserve the integrity of the original scene. Gemini Omni Flash boasts an enhanced understanding of physical principles like gravity, kinetic energy, and fluid dynamics, enabling the creation of remarkably realistic video scenes. Furthermore, users can personalize their creations using their own voice and personalized Avatars, generating digital replicas of themselves. To ensure authenticity, all generated videos are embedded with SynthID digital watermarking.

Gemini Omni Flash is available immediately for all subscribers of Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra plans worldwide, accessible via the Gemini app and Google Flow. Free access is also rolling out to users on YouTube Shorts and YouTube Create.
