The newly introduced AI system should not only keep up with the GPT4 language model of its competitor OpenAI, but also surpass it. Gemini can not only generate texts in a chatbot, but also make situation-dependent decisions. Google will introduce the new system in three variants: Gemini Ultra, Gemini Pro and Gemini Nano. Google CEO Sundar Pichai said Wednesday of Gemini’s announcement that the shift being experienced with AI will be the “most profound in our lifetime, far greater than the transition to mobile phones or the Internet before it.”
Gemini can also capture information from photos and videos. Google demonstrated the system with a video chat in which Gemini immediately recognized and correctly classified drawings and hand gestures from the human counterpart.
Three different dimensions
“We are bringing Gemini to billions of people through Google products,” announced Google DeepMind boss Demis Hassabis. The Google subsidiary emerged in April 2023 from the British start-up DeepMind, which was acquired in 2014, and Google’s internal AI department. By integrating the start-up, which had previously operated largely independently, Pichai wanted to pool the AI efforts within the Google Group in order to be able to compete more decisively against OpenAI.
Google will introduce the new system in three different dimensions: Gemini Ultra, Gemini Pro and Gemini Nano. Gemini Ultra is the largest and most powerful model for highly complex tasks. This variant is aimed primarily at corporate customers.
Thinking, planning, understanding
Gemini Per will be aimed at a wide audience and, for example, teach the Google Bard chatbot “advanced thinking, planning, understanding and more”. “This is the biggest upgrade for Bard since its launch,” said Hassabis. Bard will now be available in English in more than 170 countries and territories. However, Google plans to support new languages and locations in the near future.
Pixel smartphone technology
The third Gemini variant Nano brings the system to the top model of Google’s Pixel smartphones. “The Pixel 8 Pro is the first smartphone to run Gemini Nano,” announced Hassabis. For example, the Recorder app can be used to record not only spoken language from a long meeting, a lecture or an interview and convert it into written language in real time. With the help of Gemini Nano, the pixel can then create a compact summary without any time delay. In the coming months, Gemini will be available in other Google products and services such as search, ads and the Chrome browser.
OpenAI put Google under pressure
Google has been working on applications based on artificial intelligence for years, but is currently under pressure to reveal more of them. A year ago, the start-up OpenAI sparked a new competition in artificial intelligence when it made its chat bot ChatGPT public. The software caused a stir because it can form sentences like a human. It is trained with huge amounts of data and estimates, word by word, how a sentence could continue. This brings with it the risk that it can give out completely incorrect information.
