The General Director of Google Sundar Pichai explained the main difference between the new version and the predecessor. If Gemini 1.0 taught to collect and analyze information, then Gemini 2.0 should help people put this knowledge in practice.
The new language module surpassed the previous versions in almost all scenarios. He copes much better with writing software code and more precisely answers questions. True, in working with long texts Gemini 2.0, still lags behind the Gemini 1.5 Pro model.
You can chat with the optimized version of Flash 2.0 through the Gemini web interface – just select the model in the drop -down menu on a computer or phone. Soon it will appear in the mobile application.
The developers are already testing the multimodal version of Gemini Flash 2.0 on the Google Ai Studio and Vertex AI platforms. In January 2024, the company plans to launch it for all users, and at the same time present new options with different parameters.
At the beginning of 2025, Gemini 2.0 technology will begin to appear in other Google products. The company fights for leadership not only with giants like Microsoft and META, but also with young companies – Openai (creators of ChatGPT), Perplexity and Anthropic (Claude developers).
Together with the Flash model, the developers also presented the prototypes of their “Jeenets”. Google describes them as assistants who understand the world around him deeper, calculate the consequences of their actions and can perform tasks on behalf of the user – but only under his control.
At a recent summit DealBook from The New York Times, Sundar Pichai confidently announced the advantages of Google technology. He suggested that Microsoft openly compare the capabilities of II Models of both companies at any convenient time.
