You can now interact with Google Gemini to fix your writing and code, get podcast-style summaries
Google’s Gemini is getting a significant upgrade today, introducing new ways for users to interact with their documents and code through an interactive workspace called Canvas and a feature that turns files into spoken conversations called Audio Overview. This means you can now work on text and programming projects with real-time feedback and listen to summaries of your documents as if they were a podcast.
For quite some time, AI has been evolving from simply answering questions to becoming a more active partner in various tasks. The introduction of Gemini’s Canvas and Audio Overview represents the next step in this evolution, aiming to make AI a more integrated and versatile tool for both creative and analytical work.
Canvas provides a fresh digital space where you can directly create and refine documents or write and edit computer code. When you start a Canvas, any changes you make to the text or code appear instantly. This real-time interaction allows you to collaborate with Gemini itself and see the impact of your edits right away. As you write, Gemini can offer suggestions for improving your work, such as making a paragraph shorter or change the tone of an entire document.
