A few months after OpenAI brought a Canvas feature to ChatGPT, Google is ready to offer the same functionality in Gemini.

Google's Gemini team introduces Audio Overview and Canvas, which enhance user interaction with documents and coding projects. Audio Overview converts documents into audio podcasts, while Canvas offers a collaborative space for creating and refining work.

Google just released two new features for its Gemini AI assistant: Canvas and Audio Overviews. Canvas introduces a dedicated workspace within Gemini where users can create and refine both documents and code in real-time. Users can spin up initial drafts and then work with Gemini to edit specific sections, adjust tone, or reformat content as needed.
