Google hits the table and announces the arrival of Gemini Advanced, the end of Bard and great news in AI
Google today announced great and important advances in its artificial intelligence, marking what they call “the next chapter of our Gemini era” and ending with the famous bardwhich will be replaced by this new technological power.
Gemini is a fairly recent technology that is giving a lot of talk thanks to its capabilities and that uses a combination of text, images, audio and video to understand and respond to user needs in a more complete and natural way in the ChatGPT style. .
The new version, Gemini Advanced, just presented, is even more powerful and capable than the previous onesand offers a series of new features that make it a perfect tool for anyone who wants to make the most of artificial intelligence, under the umbrella of the most powerful model, Ultra 1.0.
“The most powerful model, Ultra 1.0, is the first to outperform human experts in MMLU (massively multitasking language understanding), which uses a combination of 57 subjects—including mathematics, physics, history, law, medicine and ethics—with “which tests both knowledge and problem-solving skills. Today we take the next step and incorporate Ultra into our products and the world,” explains Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and Alphabet.
Gemini as an ecosystem at Google: “The next chapter of our Gemini era”
However, this is not all because Google’s idea is to turn Gemini into an ecosystem that supports everything, —also with the idea of preventing users from collapsing with so many AI tools— from the products used by millions of people every day to the APIs and platforms that help developers and all types of companies.
Regarding its practical applications, Gemini will be integrated into products such as Workspace and Google Cloud. For example, in Workspace, Gemini is replacing Duet AI with the goal of offering new features like “Help me type,” which they say improves user productivity and creativity.
“Duet AI will become Gemini for Workspace, and soon users with the Google One AI Premium plan will be able to use Gemini in Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides and Meet,” they explain.
However, this is not all, since Gemini, after this idea of forming an entire ecosystem, It will also be available for Google Cloud customershelping “businesses increase productivity, developers create code faster, and organizations protect themselves from cyberattacks, in addition to providing countless other benefits.”
Finally, and as mentioned at the beginning, those who are interested in using the most advanced version of Gemini, Gemini Advanced, Google will offer the new Google One AI Premium plan, for 19.99 euros per month, which includes the company’s exclusive artificial intelligence functionswhich offers enhanced abilities to reason, follow instructions, code, and collaborate creatively.
This new plan will have the same benefits as the Premium service, adding these new features in artificial intelligence.
“While today is the day for Gemini Advanced and its new features, next week we will share more details about what is to come for developers and Cloud customers. These latest updates reflect that we are approaching innovation with ambition, as well as advancing and implementing this technology responsibly. And we are already very advanced in the training of the next version of our Gemini models,” they conclude.
