Google announced upgrades to its Gemini 2.5 text-to-speech models, focusing on expressivity, pacing, and multi-speaker capabilities. These changes improve control over tone and style, making it easier for developers to create realistic audio content. The updated models are available in Google AI Studio.

Google has launched an early preview of Gemini 2.5 Flash, enhancing reasoning capabilities while maintaining speed and cost efficiency. This hybrid reasoning model allows developers to control the thinking process and budget, resulting in improved performance for complex tasks. The model is now available through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and Vertex AI, encouraging experimentation with its features.

Jules has officially launched publicly, transitioning from beta and powered by Gemini 2.5, after significant developer contributions that improved its functionality. The release introduces structured tiers for users, offering higher limits for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, along with enhanced capabilities like GitHub integration and multimodal support.
