Its release is expected to change the future of AI technology. Gemini is a versatile AI system with impressive abilities in the fields of image, audio, video and text analysis.

It has a strong understanding of science, can easily identify images and speak in real-time. Additionally, Gemini demonstrates exceptional reasoning and coding skills.

Gemini is available in three sizes: Ultra for complicated tasks, Pro for doing a variety of tasks, and Nano for performing tasks efficiently on a device.

1. Pro is now included in Google products through Bard, starting today.
2. Ultra will be released at the start of next year, while Nano will be accessible on Pixel.
3. Ultra will be released at the start of next year, while Nano will be accessible on Pixel. But that’s not all.

Gemini Ultra outperforms the current leading results in 30 out of 32 benchmarks from LLM research and development. Even more significant, Gemini Ultra is the first model to surpass OpenAI’s GPT-4, the leading AI force today 🤯 Furthermore, Gemini Ultra allegedly achieves the highest score ever (90%) on the Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) test, a step closer toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).

Starting today, Gemini Pro will be available at no cost in Bard and across Google apps. Its superiority over OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 makes it the most potent free chatbot currently on the market.
