NEXT IN AI

Details of Google’s upcoming Gemini model reportedly leaked 

Rumors of a GPT-4 killer from Google have been doing the rounds for quite some time. The Information reported last month that Google had already given a select group of companies access to Gemini, the new LLM from Google.

Now a new blog post from blogger Bedros Pamboukian claims to have access to previously unseen details about the new AI model from Google. Here’s what the blog post claims:

• Gemini will replace PaLM-2, Google’s current model of choice, which powers applications such as their Bard chatbot.

• Gemini will also be multimodal, which means it may be able to accept and produce images, audio, and video, in addition to text.

• A new AI feature called ‘Stubbs’ will enable users to create functioning apps with simple text prompts.

• It appears that Gemini will also be able to produce output in different languages.

While these reported leaks seem plausible and exciting, we recommend you take these bits of information with a grain of salt until they’re confirmed by Google or a major publication.
