You can create a personalized digital AI avatar that looks and sounds like you using Google Gemini. Once created, you can prompt your avatar to speak scripts and star in generated videos across Google Gemini and Google Vids. [1, 2]
Here are some visual examples of the Gemini avatar interface and creation process:
Prerequisites
- Age: You must be 18 or older.
- Account: A personal Google Account with an active Google AI plan (such as AI Premium).
- Language: Your device language must be set to English.
- Hardware: Access to a smartphone with a working camera and microphone. [3, 4]
How to create your avatar
- Open Gemini: Navigate to the Google Gemini Portal on your computer or open the Gemini mobile app. [3]
- Access avatar menu: Click Add files (the plus icon) inside the bottom chat box and select Avatar. Alternatively, you can directly visit the Gemini Likeness Page. [3, 5, 6]
- Scan QR code: If you are using a desktop, a QR code will appear. Scan it with your mobile phone to continue the setup. [4, 6]
- Record your likeness: Follow the on-screen instructions to record a brief selfie video. The app will prompt you to turn your head side-to-side and read a series of numbers aloud to capture your voice profile. [2, 7, 8]
- Finalise: Once processing is complete, tap Use Avatar to save it to your Google account. [3]
How to use your avatar
To generate video content starring your digital clone, open a new chat in the Gemini app and tap Add files, then select Avatar. Your avatar will appear in the text prompt field as @[your Google username]. Type your desired script or describe a scenario (e.g., “make a video of this avatar explaining market trends”) and submit the prompt to generate your video. [1, 3, 7]
