Utilisation of Tools and APIs

Gemini comprises a series of models, each varying in size and capabilities. It may employ memory functions, fact-checking against sources like Google Search, and enhanced reinforcement learning to improve accuracy while mitigating the risk of generating misleading content.

“Additionally, we’re continuing to address known challenges for models such as factuality, grounding, attribution and corroboration,” the post adds.

Gemini is anticipated to significantly influence the AI industry, representing Google's most powerful AI model to date. It powers various applications and devices, such as the Bard chatbot and Pixel 8 Pro.

“We’re also bringing Gemini to Pixel. Pixel 8 Pro is the first smartphone engineered to run Gemini Nano, which is powering new features like Summarize in the Recorder app and rolling out in Smart Reply in Gboard, starting with WhatsApp,” the post states.

According to the post, “With a score of 90.0%, Gemini Ultra is the first model to outperform human experts on MMLU (massive multitask language understanding), which uses a combination of 57 subjects such as math, physics, history, law, medicine and ethics for testing both world knowledge and problem-solving abilities.”

Gemini is crafted to possess inherent multimodal capabilities, initiating its pre-training with diverse modalities right from the outset. Subsequently, it was fine-tuned using additional multimodal data to enhance and optimise its overall effectiveness.

It enables Gemini to effortlessly grasp and analyse diverse inputs comprehensively, surpassing the performance of current multimodal models. Its capabilities are state of the art across almost every domain, as per the report.

The post states, “Using a specialised version of Gemini, we created a more advanced code generation system, AlphaCode 2, which excels at solving competitive programming problems that go beyond coding to involve complex math and theoretical computer science.”

“To limit harm, we built dedicated safety classifiers to identify, label and sort out content involving violence or negative stereotypes,” it adds.
