5 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do With AI — For Free, Right Here in LA
From murals in the Arts District to film sets in Hollywood and Burbank, living in Los Angeles means you're surrounded by creativity. But what if you had a tool that could help you not just experience creativity, but actually create it?
Tools like Gemini are now free at every LA Public Library, giving students across the city access to technology that can help them learn, build, and explore their future. Whether you're exploring the city or just looking for something productive between beach days and hangouts, here are five things you can do with Gemini AI for free, right here in LA.
1. Turn LA Inspiration Into Your Own Digital Art — From street art downtown to the views at Griffith Observatory, LA is full of inspiration. With Gemini, turn what you see into your own digital designs, posters, or brand concepts at any of the 73 library Gemini Lab spaces. In partnership with LA Metro, the Open Mind Map helps you find a library, discover local spots, and navigate the city on the free GoPass program.
2. Build Your Resume Before You Even Need One — Whether you're applying for your first job, internship, or summer program, Gemini can help you draft resumes, write cover letters, and practice interview questions. Stop by a library after The Grove or Santa Monica Pier and turn your experiences into something you can actually show up with.
3. Get Homework Help That Actually Makes Sense — Summer school, AP prep, or just trying to stay ahead: Gemini breaks down complex topics step by step, so you actually understand them instead of just memorizing. At locations like the Central Library, quiet study space sits right alongside the AI tools.
4. Create Content Like a Creator — Thinking about a YouTube channel or a personal brand? Gemini Labs can help you brainstorm ideas, write scripts, and plan a content strategy. This summer, join the Open Mind Challenge — a citywide contest asking what growing up in LA means to you — with some branches hosting youth workshops and digital media programs to test ideas alongside other student creators.
5. Explore Your Future Before It Starts — Not sure what you want to do yet? Gemini can help you explore careers, learn new skills like coding or design, and map out paths based on your interests, alongside library-hosted student programs and career roundtables all summer long.
When tools like Gemini are available in all 73 LA Public Libraries, the playing field starts to level — it doesn't matter where you come from, you have access to the same tools, the same knowledge, the same shot at building your future. Your local library isn't just a place to study anymore. It's a place to create, experiment, and learn skills that matter long after summer ends. The future isn't something you wait for — it's something you start building, right here with Gemini.
