Google takes Dreambeans to India in bid to bring AI-generated personal stories to the masses
Google's Dreambeans, its latest AI experiment, now supports 13 Indian languages.
Google has launched its experimental AI app Dreambeans in India, its first market outside the U.S., as the company looks to tap the world’s second-largest internet market to bring personalized visual stories drawn from users’ digital activity to a broader audience.
On Monday, Google expanded Dreambeans, available on Android and iOS, to India with support for 13 local languages, including Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, and Bengali, alongside English. The launch comes less than two months after Google made the app available to all eligible U.S. users aged 18 and older.
Introduced in June, Google’s Dreambeans uses information from connected Google services, including Calendar, Gemini, Gmail, Photos, Search, and YouTube, to proactively generate personalized, illustrated stories about users’ interests and everyday lives, without requiring them to enter a prompt. The app initially featured static, AI-generated illustrations, but Google recently added a feature that uses its Veo video-generation model to even animate images in select stories.
