Meet Gemini: Google’s Largest and Most Powerful AI Model
This next-gen AI model outperformed ChatGPT on almost all academic benchmarks.
When OpenAI released ChatGPT last November, there was a pressing question on everyone’s minds — what are the tech giants doing?
When will companies like Google respond to this development?
We now have our answer.
On December 6, 2023, Google announced their latest AI model: Gemini.
According to the company’s CEO Sundar Pichai, this technology is a huge leap forward in artificial intelligence, and will affect virtually all of Google’s products.
Gemini comes in 3 sizes
The current version of the model is called Gemini 1.0. It can work with text, images, videos, and audio, and comes in 3 different sizes.
Gemini Nano is a small, more efficient version that can be run natively and on Android devices.
Gemini Pro, the middle tier version, strikes a balance between between capability and efficiency. This model performs significantly better than Google’s previous flagship model, PaLM-2. It currently powers the Bard chatbot.
