Google’s Gemini Omni turns images, audio, and text into video — and that’s just the start
Google has introduced Gemini Omni, a new family of multimodal models capable of generating videos from various inputs like images, audio, and text. This development aims to enhance user creativity by allowing them to create high-quality videos that reflect a deep understanding of different subjects. The long-term vision for Omni includes generating images from audio and vice versa, expanding the possibilities of content creation.
- ▪Gemini Omni allows users to combine images, audio, video, and text to produce consistent video outputs.
- ▪The first model, Gemini Omni Flash, will roll out today and can render 10 seconds of video.
- ▪All videos created with Omni will include a digital watermark for verification.

When Google launched Gemini three years ago, the goal was to build a multimodal large language model — a single neural network that was trained on text, image, audio, and video and could generate content in any of those formats. Today, at its Google I/O developer conference, the company took a concrete step toward that goal with Gemini Omni, a new family of multimodal models that Google CEO Sundar Pichai says will be able to “create anything from any input.” Omni will start with video. Users can now combine images, audio, video, and text, and rather than simply stitching those inputs together, Omni reasons across all of them to produce a consistent output. The result is high-quality videos that reflect an understanding of physics, culture, history, and science.
