Besides that, LearnLM provides opportunities for active learning, presents information in multiple ways, adapts to the needs of its students, stimulates curiosity, and deepens metacognition.

Firebase Genkitis an open-source framework that allows you to integrate AI into JavaScript/TypeScript and Go applications that use Node.js. With it, you can build AI features in mobile and web apps. In addition, it gives you access to templates, plugins, and simple abstractions to make your development more efficient.

Imagen 3is Google’s image-generating tool, and this version has better accuracy, creativity, detail, and text rendering capabilities than the previous one. Hopefully, the new model won’t repeat the mistakes of Imagen 2.

Veois an AI model that generates 1080p video clips from text prompts. The tool could potentially rival Sora AI and other models. Also, it will be available to some creators using VideoFX. So, if you want to try it, join thewaitlist.
