New Delhi: Google CEO Sundar Pichai has brought the spotlight to the creative power of artificial intelligence, sharing a visually stunning video of fractal fireworks generated by Google’s latest AI model, Gemini 2.5 Pro, to mark the 4th of July celebrations in the United States.

Pichai posted the AI-generated display on X (formerly Twitter) with the message, "Happy 4th 🇺🇸! Creating some fractal fireworks with Gemini 2.5 Pro :)"

The video features intricate, multi-coloured fractal patterns bursting across the screen, capturing the dynamism and grandeur of traditional fireworks but created entirely in the digital realm by AI.

Gemini 2.5 Pro, the engine behind the fractal display, is Google’s advanced AI model, noted for its superior reasoning and coding abilities. Launched earlier this year, it represents the next leap in generative AI, not only for productivity and automation but for creative applications as well. The fractal fireworks serve as a showcase of the model’s capabilities, illustrating how AI can craft content that is both technically complex and emotionally resonant.

The use of AI for creative and cultural events is a growing trend. Similar initiatives, like BFC31552’s holiday-themed fractal displays, demonstrate the appetite for digital reinterpretations of classic traditions. Such projects signal a future where generative AI is a collaborator in art and celebration, offering new possibilities for how audiences experience familiar events.

The impact extends beyond visual delight. AI’s growing sophistication raises questions about the future role of technology in the creative industries. Will AI become an essential tool for artists, or even a primary creator in certain contexts? As AI models like Gemini 2.5 Pro continue to advance, the intersection of technology and tradition is expected to deepen, reshaping how culture is produced, shared, and remembered.

For Google, the 4th of July fractal fireworks are also a timely showcase for the capabilities of Gemini 2.5 Pro and the broader Google AI ecosystem, including the newly launched Google AI Pro & Ultra. These tools are designed to empower users with advanced features and creative opportunities, reflecting Google’s ambition to lead the next wave of AI-powered productivity and innovation.
