The video features a young female athlete whose idol is American track and field star Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, and the narration is by her father.

She wants to write a letter to Sydney, and her father uses Gemini to write a letter. The father says in the narration that "she wants to express her admiration for Sydney, with full emotion, but just the right amount of emotion."

The father then prompted Gemini: "Write a letter for my daughter telling Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone how inspiring she is and be sure to mention that my daughter plans to one day ... break her world record."

Widely negative reviews

After the advertisement was released, it was criticized by many netizens. Some people believed that the advertisement encouraged the unhealthy trend of over-reliance on generative AI tools and deprived children of learning opportunities.
