The Google I/O 2025 puzzle used the Gemini API to generate dynamic riddles for bonus worlds, enhancing player engagement and scalability. Here's what our developers learned on using the Gemini API effectively, including creativity, design, and implementation strategies.

Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite is now generally available in the Gemini API for production use in Google AI Studio and for enterprise customers on Vertex AI. 2.0 Flash-Lite offers improved performance over 1.5 Flash across reasoning, multimodal, math and factuality benchmarks. For projects that require long context windows, 2.0 Flash-Lite is an even more cost-effective solution, with simplified pricing for prompts more than 128K tokens.

Vertex AI RAG Engine, a managed orchestration service, streamlines the process of retrieving and feeding relevant information to Large Language Models. This enables developers to build robust, grounded generative AI apps that ensure responses are factually grounded.

The Gemini 2.0 model family is seeing significant updates, including the release of Gemini 2.0 Flash, which is now production-ready and boasts higher rate limits, enhanced performance, and simplified pricing. Developers can also start testing an updated experimental version of Gemini 2.0 Pro today. Additionally, a new variant called Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite, specifically designed for large-scale workloads, will be made available next week.

Imagen 3 – now available in Google AI Studio and the Gemini API – offers developers state-of-the-art image generation with brighter, better-composed images in diverse styles, and simplified image generation through text prompts.

Google I/O returns May 20-21. Watch the livestreams for updates on Android, AI, web, and cloud. Registration is open on the Google I/O website.

A practical guide to constructing a Gemma 2-based Agentic AI system – a type of AI that can make its own decisions and use external tools to achieve goals – that can generate dynamic content for a fictional game world.

Langbase empowers developers to build and deploy powerful, scalable AI agents by leveraging the Google Gemini API, particularly Gemini 1.5 Flash, unlocking a new era of intelligent applications and streamlined workflows.

PaliGemma 2 mix, an upgraded vision-language model, is now available, offering capabilities like image captioning, OCR, and object detection in various sizes.

The Data Science Agent in Google Colab, powered by Gemini, can now generate complete, working notebooks from simple natural language descriptions, so developers can automate data analysis tasks, saving time to focus on deriving insights.
