Now available in 200+ countries, including in the Arab world, Search Live allows you to: ✅ Talk to Google as naturally as a friend in your own language, including Arabic. ✅ Use your camera to ask "How do I fix this?" or "What is this?" ✅ Switch seamlessly between voice, vision, and text. Powered by Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, this is search that finally feels human. Whether you're navigating a city or a professional troubleshooting on-site, the barrier between asking and knowing just got a lot thinner. If you could point your camera at one thing right now and have an AI explain it to you, what would it be? 🎤

  • Curious to begin using Gemini, but hesitant to start with a personal assistant from scratch? We just launched an update for the Gemini app: "Import Memory" and "Import Chat History." This new tech eliminates "switching costs," allowing you to migrate your existing context, preferences, and deep research from other AI apps directly into Gemini. How to migrate in 3 simple steps: 💫 Sync Memories: Go to Gemini Settings, use the memory import option, paste the suggested prompt into your current AI app. After getting a summary of your preferences, paste them back into Gemini. ✨ Upload History: Export your data from another AI app and upload the .ZIP file to Gemini (up to 5GB). Gemini will securely organise your past threads so that you can keep building on them. 🧑💼 Resume Work: Your history threads will appear in the side panel with an "Import" icon, fully searchable and ready for new prompts. Instead of rebuilding your digital "second brain", transfer your history to Gemini. It is fast, easy and secure. How to switch tools: https://lnkd.in/edJPtiAn hashtag #GoogleGemini

  • News for the MENA AI ecosystem! 🚀 We are excited to share that MBZUAI (Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence) got a $1 million support from Google.org.   With this funding from Google.org, MBZUAI’s Vice Provost Thamar Solorio will lead an effort to help speakers of underrepresented languages across the Middle East and North Africa, ensuring the local community is able to benefit from AI. Why does this matter? Most AI today is trained on English-centric data. This initiative focuses on creating a local research system that understands the diverse dialects and rich cultural contexts of our region. This collaboration will: ✅ Help researchers develop “resource-lean” sophisticated AI tools. ✅ Support early-career researchers and postdoctoral talent. ✅ Enhance real-world applications in education, cultural preservation and digital communication. As Yossi Matias, Google VP and the Head of Google Research noted, this work aims to solve practical problems through science and shows progress on the MENA AI Opportunity Initiative. Join us in congratulating the MBZUAI team on this incredible achievement! 👏 #AIforGood #MENA #MBZUAI #GoogleAI
