Google has released Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, its AI video model, for general use. It generates clips up to 15 seconds long and costs 30% less, at about $0.07 per second for 720p video.
Google Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash is available through the Gemini API and Google Cloud. Users can change a background, product or lighting over several chat turns rather than generate the whole clip again.
The workflow lets users draft at 360p or 720p, edit the result and upscale their chosen version to 1080p or 4K. Google also says faces, clothes, packaging text and brand colours stay more consistent across camera angles.
For businesses making product videos, the practical benefit is the ability to revise individual details without starting from scratch. Complex physics and rapid script changes remain areas under development, so dependable results across production tasks are still unproven.
Lower generation prices make it cheaper to test video variations before choosing a final version.
Conversational editing could reduce repeated generation work when only a product detail or background needs changing.
Google's consistency claims do not yet establish that the model can reliably handle a company's full production workload.

Airbnb plans to launch an AI travel agent in the first half of 2027 to help users plan and book trips. It will assemble maps, photos, comparisons and calendars around each request rather than rely on a conventional chatbot.
Axiom Math says its AI agents have formally verified the Stacks Project, a major mathematical reference. The result is about 16 million lines of computer-checked code, drawn from roughly 7,654 pages of mathematics.
