	tl;dr: Google released Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, a video generation model offering native 15-second clips (up from 10s), multi-turn conversational editing, and better reference adherence for characters, products, and styles. Pricing drops 30% to $0.07 per second for 720p video, with support for 360p drafts up to 4K upscaling. It's generally available via the Gemini API, Google Cloud, Flow, Google Vids, and the Gemini app, with SynthID watermarking on outputs.
	HN Discussion: ↓Google's AI product branding and versioning is confusing and inconsistent ↓Access and rollout of Google's AI models is frustrating and gated ↓Google should focus on improving Gemini integration in existing products instead of new models ~Clarification that this is a video model with marginal improvements, and pricing isn't actually cheaper ↓The model still has technical limitations for character consistency and complex prompts
