Google's Gemini Omni Shows 2 Video Demos as I/O 2026 Nears

4 articles · Updated · 9to5Google · May 11
  • Google’s unannounced Gemini Omni surfaced for at least one user as a new video-generation tool that can remix clips, edit directly in chat and use templates.
  • Two demo prompts produced notably realistic results: a professor writing trigonometric proofs on a chalkboard and two men calmly eating spaghetti at a seaside restaurant.
  • Metadata suggests Omni may extend Google’s Veo model, though Google has not clarified how the new feature fits into Gemini’s broader video strategy.
  • An AI Pro account’s usage tab showed those two prompts consumed 86% of daily usage, hinting at meaningful limits or high compute costs for video generation.
  • Google has yet to announce Omni officially, but with I/O 2026 close and the company recently saying “video’s here to stay,” more details may arrive soon.
