Nano Banana raised the bar considerably on what was possible with image generation. Omni purports to do the same with video. Omni has begun to roll out, but I haven't had a chance to play with it.

Google described Omni as "where Gemini's ability to reason meets the ability to create." Interestingly, according to the company, "With Omni, you can combine images, audio, video and text as input and generate high-quality videos grounded in Gemini's real-world knowledge."

Although Omni is "starting with video," Google said the new model can "create anything from any input," so presumably we'll see other media types generated by the tool within due time.
