  • Gemini AI: News

    Gemini AI for Android is reportedly getting a new feature allowing users to edit the images generated by the chatbot. A report found evidence for the feature within the Google beta app for Android. Interestingly, the feature is said to allow users to edit images using both text prompts and by highlighting a specific part of the image. While the feature was found in the beta app of Google, it has not been made visible and beta testers might not be able to use it.

    Editing the images generated by an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot is a difficult proposition at present. In most cases, users just have the option to regenerate the image with improved prompts. However, there is no guarantee the newly generated images will be similar to the ones previously created by the chatbot. Last week, Meta announced image editing capabilities for its chatbot.

  • Claude artificial intelligence (AI)

    Anthropic launched an Android app for its Claude artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot on Tuesday. The Android app comes a couple of months after the AI firm released an iOS app for Claude. Users can find the Claude AI app free to download on the Play Store. The interface works similarly to the website, and even free users can take advantage of all the basic features. The chatbot is powered by Claude 3.5 Sonnet by default, which was released by the company last month.

    The AI firm announced the launch of the Android app via a post on X (formerly known as Twitter). Unlike the iOS app release, Anthropic did not specify if this was a global release or would only be available in select regions. Gadgets 360 was able to access the app through the Play Store. Notably, the Claude AI app is 4.12MB in size.

    Claude’s Android app is free to download and use. However, users will have to sign up using an email and register their account with their phone number. Free users will be able to access all the basic features of the text-based AI model. Since Claude 3.5 Sonnet powers the chatbot now, users will also be able to access its computer vision capabilities. To use the feature, users will need to give the app access to the camera and the gallery. Once done, they can click any picture and ask the AI for information about it.

  • Synthesia 2.0

    Synthesia introduced Synthesia 2.0, an artificial intelligence (AI) video communications platform for businesses, on Monday. The AI platform will allow users to generate studio-quality videos with AI avatars just by posting the video script. The platform has also launched two different styles of AI avatars, including an Expressive AI Avatar that can be given a personality and can use a full range of body language such as head, eye, and hand movements. The AI firm says users can customise the video elements to include their brand identity as well.

    The AI firm unveiled the AI platform and showcased its features. The Synthesia 2.0 platform features two types of personal AI avatars, an AI Video Assistant, AI Screen Recorder, and an interactive video player that can be personalised as per the brand’s preference. The platform’s AI avatars are trained on the company’s in-house Express-1 AI model.

  • Stability AI

    Stability AI has released an open-source artificial intelligence (AI) model dubbed Stable Audio Open. Users can leverage the model to generate up to 47 seconds of samples and sound effects. Users can use it to create samples of musical instruments or ambient sounds. The AI model also allows users to generate different variations and styles of a previously generated sample. The open-source model is separate from the AI firm’s Stable Audio platform which allows users to generate up to three-minute-long tracks and is only available as part of a subscription.

    Stable Audio Open works similarly to many available AI models in the market. Users can write a text prompt for a sample or sound effect and it will generate up to 47 seconds of audio. Stability AI mentioned in a newsroom post that the AI model was released in open source to empower sound designers, musicians, and creative communities.

    However, it has limited the use of Stable Audio Open to research and non-commercial usage. To get commercial rights, users will have to purchase a Stability AI membership.
