Users of the Gemini application can now import audio files (MP3, M4A, WAV, etc.) directly in a conversation. This function, available on Android, iOS and the web, responds to what Google describes as the number one demand from users.
Finally supported audio files
The limit depends on the type of subscription: up to 10 minutes of audio for free accounts, and up to three hours for AI pro or Ai Ultra subscribers. The tool can be used for transcriptions or to analyze sound content, in the same way that Gemini already dealt with video.
This novelty completes a wider range of formats already supported:
- Video: Up to 5 minutes for free users, 1 hour for subscribers, with a maximum size of 2 GB.
- Other files: up to 100 MB.
- Code files or GitHub deposits: up to 5,000 files, up to 100 MB.
- Zip files: up to 10 files included.
- Each gemini session can accept a maximum of 10 files.
Gemini news is not limited to audio. Google has also announced the arrival of five new languages in the IA mode of its search engine: Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Brazilian Portuguese. The objective is to allow more Internet users to ask complex questions in their language and to benefit from an enriched exploration of the web. Alas, the Frenchman is still not there!
For its part, notebooklm, the study and writing aid tool, earns new report options. He can now produce documents in study guides, blog posts, review sheets or quiz. All in more than 80 languages, depending on files imported by the user. According to Google, the update should be available for everyone now.
These announcements are part of a series of fast updates to enrich the Gemini ecosystem. In recent weeks, the Google AI has inaugurated user preferences memory, expanding access to the VIDS video tool for free accounts, or new creation capacities in Google Photos with Veo 3.
With the integration of audio in Gemini and the linguistic extension of research, Google wants to make its AI more useful and also more universal beyond the English language alone. And by betting on notebooklm, the firm also seeks to settle in the daily life of students, researchers and content creators.
