Gemini Nano with Multimodality just got announced! This new, 3.8B parameter is designed to run on-device and can process not just text input but also audio and images. It’s coming later this year “starting with Pixel” and will be used for:

- Clearer descriptions with TalkBack. TalkBack will soon be able to automatically generate more useful image descriptions. This will help people with visual impairments who can’t see images, especially when those images don’t have alt text already.

- Scam detection. A new feature that processes voice calls to detect and warn you when the person on the other end is trying to scam you. The feature will look for conversation patterns commonly associated with scams, like when a “bank representative” asks you to urgently transfer funds. If so, your phone will buzz and show a warning. This feature will be opt-in and audio is processed on-device by Gemini Nano with Multimodality, meaning your voice calls don’t leave the device.

Gemini for Android is getting upgraded with new contextual capabilities!

- A new “ask this video” chip will appear if you invoke Gemini while a YouTube video is open. Gemini will then use the YouTube video as context.
- A new “ask this PDF” chip will appear when you’re viewing a PDF file in supported apps. Tapping this will let you ask questions about/summarize the document. This requires Gemini Advanced, though, because of its longer context window.
- You’ll be able to drag and drop generated images directly into Gmail, Messages, and other supported apps.
- Finally, devices with the next-gen multimodal Gemini Nano will surface dynamic suggestions. The way this works is that a screenshot of the screen is fed to Gemini Nano, which can then generate chips of potential things you might want to ask about.

Chinese smartphones brands like Oppo, Xiaomi, Vivo, Huawei etc and other cannot remove images of China's President Xi Jinping and the historical place Tiananmen Square using their AI Erase tools

Vivo, Huawei AI erase tools simply says that "the image contains sensitive information", thus declining to remove the content

Realme or Oppo smartphones AI tools gives warning of "high-risk content", thus failing to edit the image 💀

However, Chinese smartphones brands allows to AI erase images of other world political leaders like Russia's President Vladimir Putin easily

In global ROMs also, Xiaomi allows to remove or edit images of China's President Xi Jinping but you cannot do the same in China ROMs
