Android Authority reports a wider rollout of personal avatars in Gemini Apps, letting users create a digital likeness from face and voice recordings for AI images and video. Age and regional limits apply, with reports that availability differs in the EEA. Some video features need a Google AI plan. The coverage targets Android consumers.

What it means: Personal avatars raise the bar on consent and biometric protection. Greek firms considering similar features need clear deletion policies and under-18 bans. Limited EEA availability shows regulatory pressure around synthetic media. Marketing teams must avoid misleading use of employee likenesses without permission. The same tech feeds deepfake fraud risks that security policies should already cover with out-of-band identity checks. Teams should document owners and fallback processes before wider rollout.
