ROBOTICS — The ER 1.6 preview that shut down on August 31 does have a successor. Gemini Robotics ER 2 is in public preview, in both standard and streaming variantsVIDEO — ER 2 judges success and failure from live video rather than still snapshots, which is what lets it catch spills, slips, and misalignments while a task is still runningDEADLINE — Next up is September 30, when gemini-omni-flash-preview is retired. The target is gemini-omni-1.1-flash, GA since August 27, and there are now under four weeks leftAPIKEY — Every remaining standard API key, restricted ones included, stops working during September. The replacement is an auth key bound to a Google Cloud service accountPRICE — Gemini 3.7 Flash keeps its introductory $0.75/$3.75 per 1M through December 31, then moves to $1.50/$7.50 on January 1, 2027. Any estimate crossing the year needs both figuresAUDIO — Gemini 3.5 Transcribe handles language detection across 85+ languages, speaker diarization, word-level timestamps, and custom vocabulary biasing of up to 1,000 termsROBOTICS — The ER 1.6 preview that shut down on August 31 does have a successor.

A near-miss label won't fix itself on retry — a normalization layer for closed-vocabulary classification

When responseSchema enum returns an out-of-set label, retrying tends to return the same near-miss. From a wallpaper app's 30-category batch, here is the distribution of how labels miss, plus a normalization layer built on an alias table and gemini-embedding-2 nearest-neighbor, with measured results.

The Day We Went From 30 Categories to 34 — Reclassifying 1,180 Assets Instead of 8,142

Adding categories to a taxonomy does not require reclassifying everything. Here is how embeddings and confidence margins narrowed a backfill from 8,142 assets to 1,180, with the numbers.

Auto-Categorizing 3,000 Wallpaper Images With Gemini Vision API — A Real Production Account

Manually categorizing thousands of wallpaper images doesn't scale. This is a hands-on account of building an auto-classification pipeline with Gemini Vision API — covering design, implementation, actual cost, and the failure patterns I hit running 3,000 images through it.
