Google recently introduced Gemini, a powerful artificial intelligence (AI) system that is an integration of its previous two AI systems, Gemini and Bard. This advanced AI is easily accessible through Google’s search engine. After signing in with your Google account, you can engage with Gemini by entering various prompts to get replies.
Google states that Gemini is a multimodal AI model capable of processing information from different sources like video, text, image, and audio and generating coherent and relevant outputs. As a generative AI model, Gemini can create a variety of new content based on the input it receives, ranging from summarizing news articles to generating realistic images of people.
Gemini stands out due to its power and scalability compared to other AI models. With 1.6 trillion parameters, which are four times more than GPT-4, it can offer more nuanced and complex reasoning abilities. Furthermore, it uses Google’s AI chips, Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), to perform billions of calculations per second, making it faster than other models.
Gemini’s potential applications are broad and diverse. These include education, where it could provide personalized learning; entertainment, where it could offer creative tools; business, where it could give analytical insights and recommendations; and healthcare, providing medical information, advice, and support.
However, Google Gemini has raised concerns about certain ethical and social issues, including privacy, bias, and responsibility. Specifically, concerns have been raised about Gemini’s ability to access and use a lot of personal and sensitive data, potentially amplifying biases and errors, and generating harmful and unethical outputs.
Meanwhile, when compared with GPT-4, another AI giant, Gemini has better performance on most benchmarks such as text comprehension, reasoning, and question answering, but falls short in few-shot learning and creative text generation.
To use Gemini, or Bard AI as it was previously known, you can log in using your Google account. However, it is worth noting that like all AI models, Gemini may not be perfect and needs to be handled responsibly. Despite potential controversies and mistakes, its powerful capabilities and diverse applications make it a revolutionary step forward in artificial intelligence technology.
