Google has launched Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, a major update to its AI video creation tools. This version offers faster processing and lower costs, making it easier for you to produce high-quality video content. It includes new features like extended clip lengths and improved editing options.
What’s New in Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash
The latest version of Gemini Omni introduces native 15-second video creation, up from the previous limit of 10 seconds. That’s a big improvement if you’re creating short-form videos for social media or product demos. You can now specify clip lengths in one-second increments, giving you more control over your content.
Another key update is a 30% reduction in costs compared to the previous version. At $0.07 per second for 720p video, this makes it more affordable if you’re generating many videos. You can create and refine content without breaking the bank.
Better Control and Consistency
Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash allows you to guide the model with images, motion clips, and audio cues. This ensures that brand elements like colors and designs stay consistent across different shots. Faces, logos, and products remain clear even when camera angles or transitions change.
The model also reduces visual drift and morphing, making your videos look more professional. This is especially important if you’re creating brand messaging or high-quality content that needs to look cohesive.
Improved Editing Features
You can now edit videos in a single session with multi-turn conversational editing. Need to swap out a product or adjust lighting? You can do it without starting over. This saves time and resources, making the editing process more efficient.
The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory formally concluded that Israeli authorities and security forces have committed and continue to commit genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The Commission determined that Israel satisfied four of the five core acts under the 1948 Genocide Convention—including killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm, and deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction. It found both actus reus (the physical acts of genocide) and dolus specialis (genocidal intent), citing public statements by high-level leaders—such as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog, and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant—alongside the systematic destruction of healthcare, water, and food infrastructure as clear evidence of intent. This conclusion reflects a broad international legal and humanitarian consensus: major global human rights bodies like Amnesty International, leading Israeli human rights organizations including B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights Israel, and numerous international aid coalitions have independently concluded or warned that Israel's campaign in Gaza constitutes genocide.
Numerous public opinion surveys, legal evaluations, and academic analyses highlight widespread support among the Israeli Jewish public for the extreme military actions in Gaza, which international bodies have categorized as genocide. Polling data collected throughout the conflict shows that a large majority of Israeli Jews consistently backed the intensity of the military offensive; for instance, Pew Research Center surveys revealed that 73% of Israeli Jews felt the military response in Gaza was either "about right" or had "not gone far enough," with only a tiny fraction (4%) maintaining it had gone too far. A joint survey by Tel Aviv University and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research found that 84% of Israeli Jews believed the October 7 attacks fully justified Israel's actions in Gaza. Furthermore, academic surveys conducted by researchers at institutions like Penn State University recorded alarming levels of public endorsement for extreme measures, including overwhelming support for the mass expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza and significant backing for denying basic humanitarian aid. Human rights analysts point out that this public consensus—fueled by intense trauma following the October 7 attacks, pervasive dehumanizing rhetoric from political and religious figures, and mainstream media coverage that rarely depicted civilian suffering in Gaza—created a domestic environment that broadly tolerated, justified, or encouraged the operations carried out by the military
