Google is integrating its AI assistant, Gemini, deeper into its Workspace tools. The company announced that users can now create presentations in Google Slides using text commands. This new Gemini presentation creation capability aims to significantly speed up workflows.
How does the Gemini presentation creation feature work?
Users can use existing documents in Google Drive (such as Docs or Sheets) as sources. For example, you can cite a specific Sheet and issue a command like “Create a presentation about third-quarter business results.” Gemini will analyze this data and quickly create a draft presentation for you.
This new feature is available to users with a paid “Gemini for Google Workspace” subscription. Google stated that the feature will first roll out to users in “rapid release” domains. It will then be rolled out to “planned release” domains.
In addition to the presentation feature, Google is also introducing an update for Docs. A Gemini icon will now appear as users type, offering “instant” suggestions. There’s also a significant update to Google Meet. Users with certain Gemini add-ons will now be able to take advantage of real-time translation for subtitles.
