Using AI, you can now create an Android Bot version of yourself!
Google made a new Androidify app that takes a photo of a person, generates a description using Gemini 2.5 Flash, then generates an image of an Android bot using the Imagen 3 text-to-image model.
The only problem? You'll have to compile it yourself and provide your own API keys to access Google's AI models.
IMO this is a missed opportunity from Google. This is something they should release on Google Play and not just as a sample for developers! Can imagine folks having a lot of fun with this and sharing their custom Bots😁
