Summary TL;DR

• Gemini 2.5 photo editor enables precise, multi-turn edits.

• AI Brain Computer speeds accurate robot arm control.

• AI stethoscopes screen for early heart failure in clinics.

Google’s Gemini unveils precision AI photo editor to rival ChatGPT 📸

Google launched Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, a new editor that makes precise, natural-language photo edits while preserving faces and details. Rolling out in the Gemini app and via API, it supports multi-turn edits and combining multiple references (like room, sofa, palette).

After “nano-banana” buzz, Google positions it against OpenAI. Safeguards limit misuse, with watermarks and metadata to flag AI-generated images.

AI Lets Paralyzed Users Move a Robot Arm 🤖

A UCLA-led team unveiled a noninvasive brain–computer interface that pairs EEG decoding with a camera-based AI “co‑pilot,” enabling users to guide a cursor and a robot arm faster and more accurately.

In tests, including one participant with paralysis, AI assistance made tasks significantly quicker; the paralysed user completed a four‑block pick‑and‑place in about 6.5 minutes. Published in Nature Machine Intelligence, the approach promises shared autonomy for everyday assistance.

AI Stethoscopes Arrive in Clinics to Catch Heart Failure Earlier 🩺

Imperial College London’s TRICORDER is rolling out Eko’s AI smart stethoscopes to 200 General Practitioner practices across NW London and North Wales.

In a randomized study, the tool screens for signs of heart failure during routine visits, aiming to speed diagnosis, cut ER admissions, and save up to £2,400 per patient. With 4 in 5 cases currently caught late, earlier detection could improve survival and reduce health costs.
