LangExtract is a new open-source Python library powered by Gemini models for extracting structured information from unstructured text, offering precise source grounding, reliable structured outputs using controlled generation, optimized long-context extraction, interactive visualization, and flexible LLM backend support.
Max's journey introduces LQRax, a JAX-native LQR solver, which exemplifies the growing JAX robotics ecosystem that includes tools like Brax, MJX, and JaxSim, highlighting the benefits of JAX for computational efficiency in optimal control and simulation, and for seamlessly integrating model-based and learning-based approaches.
Opal is a new experimental tool from Google Labs that helps you compose prompts into dynamic, multi-step mini-apps using natural language, removing the need for code, allowing users to build and deploy shareable AI apps with powerful features and seamless integration with existing Google tools.
Apigee helps enterprises integrate large language models (LLMs) into existing API ecosystems securely and scalably, addressing challenges like authentication and authorization not fully covered by the evolving Model Context Protocol (MCP), and offering an open-source MCP server example that demonstrates how to implement enterprise-ready API security for AI agents.
Co-hosted by Ashley Oldacre and Christina Warren, People of AI podcast's Season 5 will focus on the builders in the space of AI, highlighting the unique journeys, challenges, and triumphs of these innovators.
New AI capabilities for popular frameworks in Firebase Studio include AI-optimized templates, streamlined integration with Firebase backend services, and the ability to fork workspaces for experimentation and collaboration, making AI-assisted app development more intuitive and faster for developers worldwide.
Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite, previously in preview, is now stable and generally available. This cost-efficient model is ~1.5x faster than 2.0 Flash-Lite and 2.0 Flash, offers high quality, and includes 2.5 family features like a 1 million-token context window and multimodality.
Gemini's advanced capability for conversational image segmentation allows intuitive interaction with visual data by understanding complex phrases, conditional logic, and abstract concepts, streamlining developer experience and opening doors for new applications in media editing, safety monitoring, and damage assessment.
Veo 3, Google’s latest AI video generation model, is now available in paid preview via the Gemini API and Google AI Studio. Unveiled at Google I/O 2025, Veo 3 can generate both video and synchronized audio, including dialogue, background sounds, and even animal noises. This model delivers realistic visuals, natural lighting, and physics, with accurate lip syncing and sound that matches on-screen...
The updated Agent Development Kit (ADK) simplifies and accelerates the process of building AI agents by providing the CLI with a deep, cost-effective understanding of the ADK framework, allowing developers to quickly ideate, generate, test, and improve functional agents through conversational prompts, eliminating friction and keeping them in a productive "flow" state.
