Peggy Kolm: Google Omni Video Generation and Personalized Avatar Creation


The new Gemini Omni model possesses real-world knowledge and accurate physics, allowing for the creation of realistic video content through prompts involving text, video, images, or audio.


"You want to hold your phone in a good position, good lighting, no noise in the background, no people walking in the background. It gets confused if there's other faces", Peggy highlights her practical advice for users trying out the new avatar feature.

Nina Trankova: AI-Driven Fundraising Visualisation


The use of AI in this context serves as a brainstorming partner. As noted in the discussion, it allows for a "common sense" approach to visualization that helps motivate donors by providing a clear, visual representation of progress toward a physical goal.

"I prompted Gemini to look up up the campaign and it returned a visual idea - the illustration of the school building where a section lights up uh or changes color as funding milestones are met along the fundraising campaign", says Nina.

Bob Danley: VerticalSlide Decks in NotebookLM

NotebookLM is allowing users to generate vertical slide decks, a format particularly useful for mobile-first content or subjects that are naturally vertical, such as botanical photography.

"You don't want to try to do a vertical from the chat. What you want to do instead is you want to go to the studio section of Notebook LM and in the upper right hand corner you'll see slide deck", says Bob. 

The developments discussed in Episode 88 highlight a trend toward more personalized and specialized AI outputs. Whether through the creation of digital avatars for video, the customization of slide deck orientations for specific subjects, or the contextual application of AI to nonprofit missions, these tools are increasingly capable of handling complex, niche user requirements
