when I first go live with Gemini, there will be 10 different voices for me to choose from. Let's meet a few great ones. Let's get going. Here's one of the voices I have, but there's more to choose from. Swipe to give them a listen or just tap start to get chatting. All right, it's nice, but I want to hear a couple more. Here's another voice I can use. You can pick me now and always make a change later in settings. I'm looking forward to discussing with you the world's most profound questions, like why is pickleball so popular? That is profound. Let's try one more, or maybe you'd like to listen to a voice like this, a pretty great one if I do say so myself. But don't worry, there are more to explore. All right, let's go with this one for now. So, I'm going to start chatting. You can always change my voice in settings later. Okay, I'm here whenever you're ready. Hi Gemini, how are you doing? Hi there, I'm doing well, thanks for

asking. It's always nice to hear from someone. How can I help you today? Well, my niece and nephew are coming over this weekend, and I need a few ideas for something fun and educational we could do together. Uh, I was thinking maybe something with chemistry, something that's like a little bit magical. That sounds like a fantastic idea. How about doing a classic science experiment like making a homemade volcano? It's super easy, and there's a real sense of excitement when it erupts. Wait, I can find a few other ideas too. Do you want to hear about them now? I totally do and think magical. All right, let's brainstorm. How about invisible ink? You can write secret messages that only appear when you heat them up with a hair dryer. Or here's another one, try making some homemade lava lamps with oil, water, and food coloring. It looks super cool and trippy. So what do you think? Those are cool. I'm thinking the lava lamp. Actually, let's do the invisible ink, and like, is there a way to like take it up a

level sure we could try making the invisible ink change colors when it's heated up. Imagine writing a secret message that goes from clear to bright pink. That'd be pretty cool, right? Or maybe instead of using a hair dryer to reveal the message, we could try making a special solution that makes it glow under a black light. Ooh, I love the black light. That's super cool. Um, okay, is this going to be messy at all or not so much? The invisible ink itself isn't too messy, but you'll probably need a few bowls or trays to mix everything. The black light part shouldn't get messy either, but you might want to cover your work area just in case. Okay, that seems cool. So one last question for you, help me come up with some creative name ideas for this experiment. Absolutely. How about Spy Training Academy or maybe the Secret Message Lab? Cool, I love it. All right, all right. Thanks for your help, Gemini. [Applause]
