As of Sep 27, Google is migrating Gemini Gems into 'skills' from November 1 per 9to5Google, and Google Research introduced an AI video co-director built on four agentic frameworks.
MarkTechPost reports Google Research introduced an AI video co-director for long-form video generation: four agentic frameworks that turn short clips into coherent minutes-long stories, targeting identity drift and cascading errors.
9to5Google reports that a notice in the Gemini app's Gems manager says Google will begin automatically migrating Gems to skills on November 17, 2026, and that Gems can be used until they migrate. Skills, introduced with Gemini Spark, can be invoked with a / in the prompt box, and several can be used at once. TechCrunch reports that users won't have to do anything to make the transition.
