Google’s Gemini AI now generates interactive 3D models and real‑time simulations to explain concepts. Users can rotate, zoom, pause, and adjust variables via sliders (e.g., a Moon orbit), all accessible by choosing the Pro model in the prompt bar. The feature follows recent visualization enhancements in Claude and ChatGPT, expanding Gemini’s capabilities beyond static images.
Google has fully integrated NotebookLM into the Gemini app, allowing users to create notebooks directly in the chatbot by adding sources (PDFs, documents, URLs, YouTube videos, or pasted text) and generating outputs like reviewers, infographics, and video/audio overviews. Google warns the tool can be inaccurate and should be double-checked, with rollout starting for AI Ultra/Pro/Plus on the web and expanding to mobile and free users in coming weeks.
Google's Gemini introduces Notebooks, a feature that lets you collect files, past conversations, and custom instructions into topic-specific knowledge bases that Gemini can use as context during chats; notebooks sync with NotebookLM and work across Google products. The feature is rolling out today on the web for AI Ultra/Pro/Plus subscribers and will reach mobile and free users in the coming weeks.
A Tom's Guide face-off pits ChatGPT against Gemini across seven real-world prompts (math word problem, ethical scenario, debugging, persuasive essay, hallucination trap, knowledge gap, and a 100-word horror story). While Gemini shines in depth and nuance, ChatGPT generally wins on clarity, structure, and speed, with outcomes varying by task and several prompts favoring one model’s strengths over the other.
Google has expanded Search Live from the US to a global rollout spanning 200+ countries and languages, powered by the Gemini 3.1 Flash Live model designed for multilingual, faster, more natural conversations.

Google's Gemini adds two features to simplify switching between AI assistants: (1) a prompt-based tool that asks a rival AI to summarize what it has learned about you to bootstrap your Gemini profile, and (2) an option to import your entire chat history from another AI. Both free and paid accounts can use these, enabling easier migration and referencing past conversations across platforms, with Anthropic having offered a similar memory import feature.
Google Gemini now supports Import Memory and Import Chat History on desktop, allowing users to copy over their AI-known preferences and chat histories from another AI via a prompt and a zip export (up to 5GB); Google has renamed past chats to memory, and these features are rolling out to free and paid consumer Gemini accounts but aren’t yet available for business/enterprise or under-18 accounts.

Google TV is adding three Gemini-powered features: richer visual help that shows live scores and where to watch games, interactive deep dives that offer custom walkthroughs on topics, and Gemini-powered sports briefs with narrated overviews of major leagues. The rollout starts in the US (with visual help expanding to Canada today); Dive Deep and sports briefs require Gemini-enabled devices and have US-only availability for now, with broader device and country support planned for spring and 2026 expansions to Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.

A Tom’s Guide feature explains how the author built a customized Gemini Gem called the “Skeptical Editor” to concisely edit and fact-check drafts. By defining a clear persona, mission, and fixed output format inside Gemini, and wiring in context from Google Docs/Gmail, the Gem automatically polishes content, eliminating the need to re-teach the AI and reducing daily workload by saving hours over time.
Google's Pixel 10 series gains Gemini Screen Automation via the March Feature Drop, enabling Gemini to handle tasks in selected apps (Uber, Uber Eats, GrubHub, DoorDash, Starbucks) in the background. You can watch it work or take over, and you can stop it if needed. Usage is limited: free users get 5 requests per day, while AI Ultra subscribers can use up to 120 per day. Access the feature in the Gemini app under Settings > Screen automation on Pixel 10 devices.
Google’s Fitbit app is adding Gemini-powered Coach to tailor health guidance using medical data via partners like b.well Connected Health and Clear. Users are being nudged to switch to Google accounts (and Fitbit accounts are discontinued), with a May 19, 2026 deadline extension—raising privacy questions about who can access health records and how they’re used, even as Google says data won’t be used for ads.
Google is expanding its Personal Intelligence feature to all US users with personal Google accounts, enabling free-tier access to connect Gmail, YouTube, and Google Photos to Gemini via the Gemini app, Chrome, and Search.
