What do we know about Canvas?
Gemini's Canvas is an interactive platform for producing, editing, and sharing art. It lets users create drafts, make fast revisions, and write and modify code or documents in real time. It is intended to facilitate smooth cooperation and makes exporting to Google Docs simple.
Additionally, by facilitating code development, debugging, and explanation, the Gemini app will improve programming. Canvas helps students understand coding principles and expedites the coding process by allowing developers to quickly construct prototypes. Designing, editing, and sharing projects in one location is made simpler by Canvas's ability to produce and evaluate HTML/React code and web app prototypes.

Two AI hosts who condense material, make connections, and offer original insights will be able to have discussions thanks to Gemini. To obtain an Audio Overview for on-the-go summaries, users can submit files. In English, the function is already available to Gemini and Gemini Advanced customers worldwide; more languages will be added later.
