Gemini is now your writing assistant; turns documents into podcasts

Google is making significant changes to its assistants, with Gemini set to replace the classic Google Assistant as Android’s default voice assistant. Gemini, an AI-powered chatbot, is receiving major enhancements with the introduction of Canvas and Audio Overviews.

Canvas: Your Interactive Document Creation Assistant

Canvas is a new AI-powered feature designed to act as an interactive space where Gemini provides assistance in creating documents. It functions as a collaborative partner, offering tips and suggestions while you work on your document. Not only can Canvas help with tasks like changing the tone of your writing, but it also features a powerful coding tool for generating working prototypes of your code.

Within Canvas, users can easily preview HTML/React code and other web app prototypes, allowing for a visual representation of their design. This tool simplifies the process of coding, providing insights on logic and offering previews of the final output.

Audio Overviews: Transforming Documents into Conversational Podcasts

Audio Overviews, integrated within Gemini, enables the transformation of documents into engaging podcast-like conversations. This feature leverages AI to present content in a conversational format and provide insights from different perspectives, enhancing understanding and knowledge on various topics.

Both Canvas and Audio Overviews are now accessible on Gemini’s official website. These tools aim to make Gemini a more versatile and efficient productivity assistant. Sign up now to experience the latest Android News in your inbox every weekday.
