Google Recently announced its AI Assistant Gemini This is a series of major updates to improve the user experience and expand its application scope. This update covers performance improvements, the introduction of new features, and the expansion of the user community.
The core of the update is the introduction of Gemini 1.5 Flash, which is a comprehensive upgrade to the free version of Gemini. Version 1.5 Flash has significant improvements in response speed, reasoning ability, and image understanding. Of particular note is that Gemini's context window has been expanded from the previous 8K to 32K tokens, which means that users can have longer and more complex conversations without paying extra.
Gemini will soon be launching a file upload feature that will allow users to upload files through Google Drive or directly from their device. This feature will make it easier for users to handle complex tasks such as creating learning materials or analyzing data files.
Another new feature is the display of related content links in Gemini's responses. This not only helps users explore new topics, but also provides additional sources of information. In addition, Gemini has introduced a double-check feature to verify the accuracy of its responses through Google searches, further improving the reliability of information.
Google is rolling out Gemini's capabilities to more platforms and regions. The ability to chat directly with Gemini in Google Messages is gradually rolling out to the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, with support for French, Polish, and Spanish added. The Gemini mobile app is also rolling out to more countries.
In the coming week, Google will provide Gemini access to teenagers around the world in more than 40 languages. This initiative is designed to help teenagers better understand subject knowledge, prepare for entrance exams, and get help with creative projects. To ensure safe use, Google has developed additional policies and safeguards, including a dedicated onboarding process and AI literacy guides.
