Making Gemini Available to the World

Introduction

Gemini, a revolutionary AI technology, is now rolling out across a range of products and platforms, making it available to billions of people worldwide. In this article, we’ll explore the latest developments and what they mean for users and developers alike.

Gemini Pro in Google Products

We’re bringing Gemini to billions of people through Google products. Starting today, Bard will use a fine-tuned version of Gemini Pro for more advanced reasoning, planning, understanding, and more. This is the biggest upgrade to Bard since it launched. It will be available in English in more than 170 countries and territories, and we plan to expand to different modalities and support new languages and locations in the near future.

We’re also bringing Gemini to Pixel. Pixel 8 Pro is the first smartphone engineered to run Gemini Nano, which is powering new features like Summarize in the Recorder app and rolling out in Smart Reply in Gboard, starting with WhatsApp, Line, and KakaoTalk — with more messaging apps coming next year.

Building with Gemini

Starting on December 13, developers and enterprise customers can access Gemini Pro via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio or Google Cloud Vertex AI. Google AI Studio is a free, web-based developer tool to prototype and launch apps quickly with an API key. When it’s time for a fully-managed AI platform, Vertex AI allows customization of Gemini with full data control and benefits from additional Google Cloud features for enterprise security, safety, privacy, and data governance and compliance.

Android developers will also be able to build with Gemini Nano, our most efficient model for on-device tasks, via AICore, a new system capability available in Android 14, starting on Pixel 8 Pro devices. Sign up for an early preview of AICore.

Gemini Ultra Coming Soon

We’re currently completing extensive trust and safety checks, including red-teaming by trusted external parties, and further refining the model using fine-tuning and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) before making it broadly available. As part of this process, we’ll make Gemini Ultra available to select customers, developers, partners, and safety and responsibility experts for early experimentation and feedback before rolling it out to developers and enterprise customers early next year.

Conclusion

Gemini is revolutionizing the way we interact with AI, and we’re excited to bring it to the world. With its advanced capabilities and efficient models, Gemini is poised to change the game for developers, enterprise customers, and users alike. Stay tuned for more updates and developments as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible with AI.
