You can now generate 30-second music tracks from text prompts or photos and videos. Every clip gets a SynthID watermark, and Gemini can verify whether audio was AI-generated. Not a full production tool yet, but it’s another sign that generative audio is going mainstream fast.

The five-day AI Impact Summit, from February 16 to 20, is currently underway at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Perhaps to showcase the effusiveness and sense of solidarity of the group, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the middle, all the CEOs held hands and raised them in the air in line. While all complied, to the amusement, fascination and shock of the internet, OpenAI’s Sam Altman and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, refused to hold hands. Instead, they both just raised their fists in the air.
Perplexity is walking away from advertising. The reasoning? Once ads show up, users start second-guessing every answer. “We’re in the accuracy business,” one exec said. The company tested sponsored answers below responses, but now says ads are “misaligned with what users want.”
OpenAI hired Meta's longtime celebrity partnerships chief Charles Porch as its VP of global creative partnerships, according to Vanity Fair — a new role aimed at bridging the gap between the AI giant and a distrusting entertainment industry. Porch spent 15+ years as the go-to exec for getting A-listers onto IG, handling viral moments like Beyonce’s 2013 album drop and onboarding the Pope.
Tavus just introduced Phoenix-4, a real-time human rendering model that can generate AI avatars that have full facial expressions, shift between emotions mid-conversation, and actively listen with contextual reactions.

AI Tutorial
How to Create Music Tracks with Gemini
Go to the Gemini website, click on "Tools" and select "Create Music"
Describe the song you want to create
For example: "Create a classic 80s rock song about a road trip across the desert with friends. Include electric guitar solos, driving drums, and lyrics about freedom and adventure."
While Google said that you can't mimic an artist outright, you can still add an artist's name to your prompt to have Gemini create a track in a similar style or mood.
Example: "Generate a gritty country song in the style of Johnny Cash with raw storytelling, a steady train-beat rhythm, and his signature deep voice."
You can also upload a photo or a video, and Gemini will create a song to match the mood of the media file.
Gemini will generate a 30-second track with lyrics or instrumental audio and leverage Nano Banana to create custom cover art. You can download and share the result.
