# `GoogleGenerativeAIStream`

<Note type="warning">
  GoogleGenerativeAIStream has been removed in AI SDK 4.0.
</Note>

<Note type="warning">
  GoogleGenerativeAIStream is part of the legacy Google Generative AI
  integration. It is not compatible with the AI SDK 3.1 functions. It is
  recommended to use the [AI SDK Google Generative AI
  Provider](/providers/ai-sdk-providers/google-generative-ai) instead.
</Note>

The GoogleGenerativeAIStream function is a utility that transforms the output from Google's Generative AI SDK into a ReadableStream. It uses AIStream under the hood, applying a specific parser for the Google's response data structure. This works with the official Generative AI SDK, and it's supported in both Node.js, Edge Runtime, and browser environments.
