New Delhi: Google has been reported to be gearing up to introduce its latest AI-powered music generation feature for Gemini AI. According to some sources, it has suggested that references to music generation have been spotted in version 17.2.51.sa.arm64 of the Google application for Android. These strings indicate that Google is testing a dedicated music generation tool that could eventually sit along with Gemini’s existing capabilities, such as image generation, video tools, and deep research. The reports also stated that the music generation is now listed as a standalone capability within Gemini’s internal tool framework.
Google’s AI music features have mostly lived behind the scenes. Google already has music-generation models like Lyria, which power background audio in tools such as Veo video generation and are available to developers through the Gemini API. However, Gemini itself has not offered a simple, user-facing way to generate music. The newly discovered strings suggest that this could change. Gemini’s My Stuff section, which organises user-generated content, the latest category for generated music appears along with the existing categories like images, videos, and audio, indicating that music created with the Gemini may soon be saved and managed just like other AI outputs.
The code strings of the latest version of the Google application also hint at restrictions around the feature. Messages such as MUSIC GEN NOT SUPPORTED and checks for whether music generation is enabled suggest that the tool may not be available to everyone at launch. These limits could depend on factors like region, device compatibility, or the type of Gemini account the user has. It is also possible that Google will initially roll out the feature only to select users or as part of an experimental phase. Google has not announced a Gemini music generation feature, and there is no timeline for the public rollout. The presence of these strings suggests that development is active, but the tool could still change significantly or remain limited to internal testing.
