December 6th, 2023Via: Forbes:
Google’s most anticipated large language model, Gemini, has been officially announced today. During a virtual press conference, the leaders from Google DeepMind and Google Cloud showcased the capabilities of the new LLM while also sharing the roadmap.
Initially announced at Google I/O 2023 by Sundar Pichai, Gemini is the most capable LLM that succeeds PaLM 2, the current foundation model from Google. It is one of the first language models to score over 90% on the Massive Multitask Language Understanding, or MMLU benchmark, which covers 57 subjects across STEM, the humanities, the social sciences, and more.
Gemini is one of the most adaptable models, capable of running on both the cloud and mobile devices. It is multimodal in the sense that it can understand input in the form of a text prompt, an image, audio or even video. It has unrivaled reasoning capabilities and is capable of producing sophisticated programs and code. For instance, Gemini can look for errors in a student’s written response to a challenging mathematical problem.
