Hey there! If you’ve been keeping an eye on Google’s innovations, you’ll be excited to hear about the latest developments with their Gemini platform. Google is set to roll out two exciting features: Canvas and Veo2 integration. Let’s dive into what these mean for you.
First up, we have Canvas. This feature is designed to enhance what you can do with Gemini, offering you the ability to create documents and code files—similar to what you might be familiar with in ChatGPT. It’s been in the works for a while, and it’s about to make a splash.
You’ll find a new Canvas button popping up alongside the Deep Research button in the Composer menu. This means you can easily toggle it on or off, depending on your needs. Initially, this handy tool will be exclusive to Gemini 2.0 Flash, so keep an eye out if you’re using that version.
On the video front, Google is gearing up to integrate video generation into Gemini, which is a pretty big deal. Imagine creating videos straight from the Gemini interface! This will likely be powered by the Veo2 model, which is already making waves through VideoFX for select testers. Veo2 is known for being one of the top video generation tools out there.
Having video creation capabilities in a chat platform is quite rare, with Qwen being one of the few others offering something similar. Meanwhile, OpenAI is also expected to bring Sora into ChatGPT in the future.
As for timing, Google has updated event placeholders to include March 18. While these dates are tentative, the presence of a video generation placeholder in the code suggests a launch could happen within one to four weeks. However, given the complexity of such a feature, the exact timing for its arrival on Gemini isn’t set in stone.
