Google AI Pro for Education subscription now available to Workspace for Education customers
We are simplifying our offerings and bringing even more value by consolidating Gemini Education and Gemini Education Premium into a single add-on subscription, Google AI Pro for Education. This includes all the advanced features previously found in Gemini Education Premium. Google AI Pro for Education provides access to Gemini in Google Workspace apps, including AI-powered note taking and summaries in Google Meet, expanded access to premium models and features in Gemini for Education and NotebookLM, and more proactive security with AI-enhanced data loss prevention. | Learn more about the new Gemini offering for Education customers.
'Help me create' in Google Vids now includes support for Google Slides
Earlier this year, we added updates to the AI voiceover features within Help me create in Google Vids. Starting today, you’re now able to include Google Slides presentations as reference materials when constructing your prompts using Help me create and will receive improved Slides analysis and content incorporation into video drafts. | Learn more about using slides to help create your Vids.
Use Gemini to refine text in Slides
You can now refine text within a text box in Google Slides using Gemini. In just a few clicks, you can ask Gemini to help rephrase, shorten, formalize, or bulletize the current text using pre-set options optimized for Slides. Alternatively, you can enter your own prompt to have Gemini refine the text. This can help you quickly polish the text on your slides and improve the consumability of the content. | Learn more about using Gemini to refine text in Slides.
