Google DeepMind makes Interactions API default for Gemini models and agents

Google DeepMind has transitioned its Gemini models and agents to the Interactions API, replacing the previous generateContent API. This new interface features a simplified schema with typed steps, aiming to make agent workflows more intuitive and easier to use. Future agent features will exclusively be available through this updated API, which also supports multimodal tool use, background processing for long-running tasks, and integration with various generative capabilities like image and music generation. AI

IMPACT Simplifies development and integration for Gemini-based agents and applications, potentially accelerating adoption.

RANK_REASON This is a product update and API change for an existing model family, not a new model release or frontier research.
