Gemini expands across Google products as thinking tiers and rate limits are adjusted

Google is widening Gemini’s reach across its ecosystem, with Gemini for Home Early Access expanding to Germany and Gemini’s Avatar feature rolling out more broadly to paid subscribers in the Gemini app. The Avatar tool creates an AI-generated clone using a user’s face and voice, and generated videos include an invisible SynthID watermark and require users to be at least 18 years old. androidpolice.com androidauthority.com

Google is also changing how Gemini behaves for users by bringing its “Extended” thinking mode to all free and paid tiers. Extended thinking gives Gemini more time to reason before answering, but it can also consume usage credits faster. androidauthority.com

At the same time, Google reset Gemini quota counters for all free and paid users while deploying a refreshed Gemini 3.5 Flash variant in Antigravity. The update is meant to address drop-offs in output quality and improve endurance on harder software engineering tasks. androidauthority.com

Common questions on Gemini, surfaced from across the indexed web.

Does Omni have a use-case in education?

Of all the things Google claims Gemini Omni can do, the most ambitious is also one that's hardest to verify from a demo reel alone. Google says that the model "combines an intuitive understanding of physics" with "Gemini's knowledge of history, science, and cultural context to bridge photorealism and meaningful storytelling." Testing that claim by asking the model to visualize a diagram I found in a textbook makes it far too easy. To stress-test this, I decided to rely exclusively on text-based prompts, giving the model nothing to work from except a written brief. For the first prompt, I asked

I tried Gemini Omni, and it's so good it feels straight out of science fiction
Could NotebookLM be next?

There's literally a website called Killed by Google dedicated to tracking every product the company has discontinued, and at this point, the list is long enough to make anyone hesitant about getting too attached to a Google product (no matter how good it may be). Given that NotebookLM spent months as an experiment in Labs, then graduated from it and became a full-fledged product and is where it is today, I don't really think it'll get killed off. But what I covered in the section above does seem plausible. NotebookLM could stop being its own thing, and just become a tab inside Gemini. All that

Google's silence on NotebookLM at I/O proves why people don't trust their products
