Pianist Hayato Sumino and Harukaze ni Tsugu consult Gemini! The moment ideas take shape
Hello. This is the official note editorial department for Google's AI, "Gemini".
When you hear about using generative AI, you might think it's only for limited purposes like work or study, or that you need to master difficult prompts.
However, we believe that Gemini is a friendly, supportive consultant that anyone can use easily in their daily life, just like having a conversation.
In the video released the other day, four scenarios for using Gemini are introduced, featuring professional pianist Hayato Sumino, the comedy duo Harukaze ni Tsugu, as well as a job seeker and a family.
You can see how casually everyone interacts with Gemini.
In this article, we will explain in detail the specific prompts and actual responses regarding Gemini, which helps turn ideas into reality in various everyday scenes.
Please read on and try out the prompts yourself!
* Gemini's responses are not always accurate. Please verify the accuracy of the results yourself when you actually use Gemini.
Brainstorming travel plans (by Hayato Sumino)
Appearing in this video is pianist Hayato Sumino. Many of you may know him by his YouTube channel name, "Cateen".
Mr. Sumino is active both in Japan and abroad, and it seems he often goes to Paris for concerts. He mentioned that he would like to take the opportunity to travel around neighboring European countries with the concept of "enjoying music."
So this time, he asked Gemini to help him brainstorm travel plans.
In the video, he first casually consults Gemini Live for ideas on how to enjoy music in Europe. Since he is dealing with generative AI, coming up with 100 ideas is a breeze.
Prompt example
Come up with 100 ideas for enjoying music in Europe
Gemini's response: https://gemini.google.com/share/71758cff1196

Furthermore, you can pick out the ideas that interest you from the 100 generated and have it create a concrete travel plan. Among the many suggestions, Mr. Sumino was interested in an organ concert in Prague, Czech Republic.
Prompt example
An organ concert in Prague sounds good. Create a travel plan to tour Prague in one day
Gemini's response:

In this way, even for a large volume of ideas like 100 that would be difficult to ask a human for, Gemini can generate them all at once, and then help you further explore and shape the ones that catch your interest. If none of the 100 ideas appeal to you, you can always ask for another 100.
In this way, I hope you will feel free to consult Gemini!
Brainstorming cake design ideas (by Harukaze ni Tsugu)
Appearing in this video are the two members of the comedy duo Harukaze ni Tsugu, who are affiliated with Yoshimoto Kogyo.
The two are famous for their close relationship as a duo. This time, since Tonzu's birthday is coming up, her partner Iro Isshiki wants to make a birthday cake for her and consults Gemini Live. Gemini then asks questions back to get information for brainstorming ideas.
Prompt example
Think of some ideas for a cake to make for my partner
Gemini's response: https://g.co/gemini/share/919722c7e791

Wanting to make it a cute design, Iro Isshiki decides to ignore her partner's request for "curry and rock" and asks Gemini to design a cake with the theme of "otters and taekwondo."
Prompt example
Generate an image of a whole cake with an otter and taekwondo design
Gemini's response: https://g.co/gemini/share/f06eb0e10bab

Then, a very cute whole cake design was generated. From here, she also consults Gemini on how to actually make the cake.
Prompt example
Summarize the ingredients for this cake in a table
Gemini's response:

Of course, if the concept for the cake design hasn't been decided beforehand, you can also start by brainstorming cake ideas using the same method as the travel plan example introduced earlier.
Starting from a vague consultation about brainstorming birthday cake designs, it gradually becomes more concrete, and it even summarizes the necessary ingredients for cooking in a table. In this way, Gemini can handle a wide range of requests, from casual consultations to those that gradually narrow down to specific details!
Having Gemini think of questions that might be asked in a job interview
Appearing in this video are job seekers who have upcoming corporate interviews. While looking at the handwritten resumes they submitted, they are discussing what kind of questions might be asked in the interview.
Since I'm with a friend, I want to practice potential questions and answers for an interview. So, I'll have Gemini come up with some questions.
Gemini can recognize and read handwritten text, so in the video, I take a photo of the resume submitted to a company with my smartphone and use Gemini Live to ask for "likely interview questions" based on that image.
Prompt example
Based on this resume, come up with questions that might be asked in a job interview for the apparel industry.
Gemini's response:https://g.co/gemini/share/15700da511eb

As you can see, Gemini doesn't just provide general answers; it accurately recognizes the text written on paper and generates responses tailored to that content.
Whether it's for personal situations like job hunting, or for times when you want answers tailored to specific content—such as notes taken in class or manuals printed on paper at work—try utilizing Gemini's image input!
Expanding the range and options for play
Gemini supports you in realizing what you want to do by expanding on the ideas that pop into your head.
The father in this video is thinking about making something using the many acorns his daughter picked up.
Since Gemini is good at brainstorming, he uses Gemini Live to consult with it.
Prompt example
I picked up a huge amount of acorns. Come up with 10 novel ideas for fun things to do with my child.
Gemini's response:https://g.co/gemini/share/1bb3a1d46613

Among the ideas that came up, an instrument using acorns sounds good, so he consults further about what kind of instruments can be made.
Prompt example
The acorn instrument idea is great. Give me 5 proposals for instruments I can make with acorns!
Gemini's response:

In the video, the daughter gets excited about an "acorn drum." Since there are various ways to make drums, it's a good idea to dig deeper into that as well.
Prompt example
Tell me 5 ideas for drums using acorns, and how to make each one
Gemini's response:

In this way, children's interests and ideas expand rapidly based on Gemini's suggestions.
Please feel free to consult Gemini with the mindset of playing together!
Gemini, where various ideas take shape
This time, we introduced how to use Gemini in four daily scenarios. It can generate a large number of ideas even from rough questions, provide answers based on the content written in images, and further explore and concretize the ideas that emerge.
Please try using Gemini, which gives shape to various ideas, for a wide range of purposes! In addition to the prompts introduced this time, please also take a look at the articles below and try various things.
Finally, please also watch the making-of videos for Hayato Sumino and Harukaze ni Tsugu.
