Google's Gemini AI generates files directly in chats

Google has rolled out a new feature for its Gemini AI chatbot, allowing users to generate downloadable files directly within the chat interface. The update supports various formats including PDF, Microsoft Word, Excel, and LaTeX. It is available to all Gemini users worldwide.

Google announced on April 29 that Gemini can now create files from simple prompts, such as 'generate a PDF file' or 'create a budget.' Previously, users had to copy and paste generated content into other applications and reformat it. Now, after prompting, users tap an export button to download the file in their preferred format, or save it to Google Drive in some cases. Google stated, 'Instead of copying, pasting and reformatting, this update will allow you to easily move your work into different applications.'
