@darian314 @cuenca_eng @graceisford @jacalulu @vriparbelli “Many elements of high-fidelity production will be democratized. It will allow small teams and individual creators to achieve the scale and polish previously reserved for massive studios.”

The generative media landscape has shifted fast–from neural interfaces to entirely new workflows. Explore insights from eight AI leaders on navigating what’s next in the 'Future of AI: Perspectives on generative media for startups' report: goo.gle/43TXylc 🧵

The energy was unmatched at Google for Startups Immersion, powered by @Antlerglobal India 🚀 This exclusive program culminated with an incredible cohort of 30 top-tier AI startups. Founders walked away with vital technical scaling tools, plus a powerful new community. Across hands-on architecture whiteboarding sessions with @Google Customer Engineers and deep-dive sessions on GTM and fundraising strategy, the collaboration in the room was tangible. Huge congratulations to the founders—we can't wait to watch you build the future of AI! 🙌

Our new Startup technical guide: Generative media unpacks @GoogleDeepMind’s models, including: 📸 Gemini Image (Nano Banana) for image generation 📽 Gemini Omni and Veo for video generation 🎵 Lyria for music generation 👄 Gemini text-to-speech and Gemini Live for speech generation 🌎 Genie for “world” generation

Startups are levelling up creative applications by embedding generative media models directly into intelligent workflows. Question is: Which models work best for what tasks?🤔🧵

Scaling AI shouldn't break the bank. 📉 Learn to keep your model costs lean and efficient. 🗓️ Join @GoogleCloud on July 16 to master the token economy: goo.gle/44lVr9R We’re breaking down the architectural frameworks you need to build robust, high-traffic applications safely, such as: • Master the token economy: Optimize high-traffic application costs. • Establish firm guardrails: Deploy quotas and budgets to eliminate runway loops. • Engineer for discounts: Leverage context caching (up to 90% off) & batch processing. • The power of tagging: Track your precise "cost-per-successful-run."

@BayraktarTahsin @GravitiLabs @__sunera__ @asirtech @YsquareTech @JosephKThomas13 A heartfelt thank you to all the incredible startups that submitted hundreds of innovative projects, and huge congratulations to our winners! 🚀

🌏 APAC Regional Winner: @YsquareTech’s Kiosk as a Service (KaaS) is a voice-first, multi-tenant platform that replaces costly touch kiosks with natural, smartphone-based interactions. 🌍 EMEA Regional Winner: @JosephKThomas13 at Synapse, which provides a personal knowledge graph and shared memory layer, giving stateless AI agents continuous access to historical decisions.

The Google for Startups AI Agents Challenge 2026 officially has its winners. ⚡🤖 From reimagining family healthcare to solving AI "amnesia," these pioneering teams are moving the industry from static code to declarative, production-grade autonomous agents 🧵
