👋 Greetings + welcome, new BlueSky-gazers!

I'm an engineer working on the developer experience for @Google's AI tools, especially aistudio.google.com, its API keys, @GoogleColab, Gemma open-source models, @Kaggle, and JAX.

I post use cases, quick technical overviews, and images of hiking trips. 😀

Google AI Studio

Google AI Studio is the fastest way to start building with Gemini, our next generation family of multimodal generative AI models.

👋 Want to make sure that your favorite IDEs and extensions (Roo Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) always use the latest Gemini API models and features?

Make sure to either add one of the files below into your context window, or MCP-ify the SDK repo:

📸 Imagen 4 Ultra in Google AI Studio is extremely, *extremely* good at generating images that look and feel like they were taken with a Polaroid camera.

📽️ Simple research and podcast generation workflow using LangGraph and Gemini 2.5!

You can pass a research topic and a YouTube video; the system will then perform research on the topic using search, analyze the video, combine insights, and generate a report with citations as well as a short podcast.

Google AI Studio + @github.com = 🚀!

You can now link the apps that you create with your GitHub (personal or private repos). Happy building!

Gemma 3n model overview | Google AI for Developers

Paige Bailey @dynamicwebpaige.bsky.social · Aug 6

Reminder: DeepMind's Gemma 3n model is performing about as well as Gemini 1.5 Pro – better, in many cases! – and is only 4B parameters in size.

The best model 6 months ago is now small enough to be run on a laptop. Now play that forward 6 months from now, thinking about the best models of today. 🤯

Get ready to enter the simulation...

Genie 3 is a new frontier for world models: its environments remain largely consistent for several minutes, with visual memory extending as far back as 1min. These limitations will only decrease with time.

Welcome to the future.🙌

📝 Tired of having too many tabs open, but no time to read through all of them?

Just built a Chrome extension using AI Studio's URL Context feature - all you have to do is add an API key, and the extension uses Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite to summarize all of your open tabs.

🚀 The Gemini APIs in Google AI Studio can be used to understand – and also to generate! – many different output modalities:

Video, images, audio, text, code, or all of the above all at once.

If you've only been using the models to generate text and code, you're missing out. 👇

"The intent of this first civil engineering design project is to let you get a feeling for [material properties and constraints] -- by going from playing to building and assessing *what* you do and *why*."

🗺️ New favorite use case for Google AI Studio's Build:

1️⃣ Use Gemini w/Search Grounding to identify specific places (ex: dog-friendly parks in SF; pickleball courts that are bookable on weekends; aestheticians that use Dermalogica products; etc.)

2️⃣ Then use @openstreetmap.bsky.social to visualize.

[...] 15 year archive totaling more than 116M tokens in a single batch. It took just one command and just 39 minutes to process the complete archive, yielding 154,739 distinct stories: an average of 10.5 stories per broadcast.

Most incredibly of all: it cost just $153.80 to do all of this!"

We used the standard off-the-shelf public Gemini 2.5 Flash Thinking model without any modifications. No data was used to train, tune or otherwise contribute to any model: we used Gemini only to create an index of each broadcast.

We make use of Gemini's batch processing to analyze the entire [...]
