Google Enhances Gemini AI Platform with Major Updates for Improved User Experience
Google has rolled out significant updates to its Gemini conversational AI platform, introducing new features designed to enhance user experience and performance. Similar to ChatGPT, Gemini assists users with a variety of tasks such as text generation and answering questions.
The tech giant unveiled the updates, including the launch of Gemini 1.5 Flash, which promises faster and more accurate responses in the platform’s free tier, alongside improvements in quality and latency.
One of the key upgrades is the expansion of the context window to 32K tokens, enabling more complex and in-depth conversations. Other enhancements include better handling of AI-generated inaccuracies, an expanded experience tailored for teenage users, and broader availability of the mobile app.
Amar Subramanya, Vice President of Engineering at Gemini, highlighted that the platform now allows users to chat directly in Google Messages on select Android devices. Additionally, users will soon be able to upload files from Google Drive or their devices, enhancing functionalities such as creating practice questions and analyzing data.
Google is also adding a feature that displays related content links within Gemini’s responses, making it easier for users to access additional resources and verify information. The platform’s double-check feature, which uses Google Search to validate statements, will be further enhanced to ensure accuracy.
These updates are now available on both web and mobile platforms, supporting 40 languages and accessible in over 230 countries and territories.
