Last week, Google introduced its latest and most powerful generative AI model, Gemini, along with a detailed roadmap and immediate availability for users to explore it through Bard. Today, Google announced the availability of Gemini Pro to developers and organisations via the Gemini API on Google AI Studio, while enterprises can access it through Google Cloud’s Vertex AI platform.
Gemini Pro outperformed GPT-3.5 in several benchmarks, including MMLU and GSM8K, which measure language understanding and grade school math reasoning, respectively. Developers will have free access to Gemini Pro and Gemini Pro Vision, a multimodal endpoint that accepts text and image input, through Google AI Studio. Vertex AI customers will also have access to the models at no cost until general availability next year.
In addition to Gemini Pro, Google is introducing Imagen 2, an upgraded image AI model that delivers improved image quality and text rendering in multiple languages. Imagen 2 can generate a range of creative and realistic logos for businesses. Google is also launching MedLM, a family of AI models tailored for the healthcare industry, and is expanding the capabilities of Duet AI in Google Cloud, its AI-powered collaboration solution.
