Google Nears Release of Conversational AI Software 'Gemini' - Slashdot
Sep 16, 2023 - tech.slashdot.org
Google is reportedly close to releasing Gemini, its conversational AI software designed to compete with OpenAI's GPT-4 model. Gemini, a collection of large-language models, is expected to power a range of applications from chatbots to text summarization and generation. It could also assist software engineers in writing code and creating original images based on user requests. Google has increased its investments in generative AI this year, following the successful launch of Microsoft-backed OpenAI's ChatGPT.
Currently, Google is providing developers access to a relatively large version of Gemini, but not the largest one which would be comparable to GPT-4. The company plans to offer Gemini to businesses through its Google Cloud Vertex AI service.
