Yesterday, Google announced that it renamed Bard to Gemini, which is its new AI-powered digital assistant and chatbot. It is more powerful than Google Assistant and offers advanced reasoning and more in-depth answers. The company also unveiled Gemini Advanced (earlier named Duet AI), which is even more powerful but comes at a price. It is targeted towards users who want to improve their productivity and work.
Gemini Advanced AI chatbot is for more advanced reasoning and improving productivity
Gemini Advanced is based on Google’s Gemini Ultra 1.0 engine. It is the most advanced AI-powered chatbot and is more capable of doing things like coding, creative tasks, reasoning, understanding instructions more carefully, and performing other highly complex tasks. While Gemini is free for everyone, Gemini Advanced is available only with a paid subscription model. It can be accessed by switching from Gemini to Gemini Advanced from the top-left corner of the screen. You can use Gemini Advanced for coding improvements and suggestions, deriving summaries of documents and emails, and getting new ideas for projects.
Gemini Advanced can become your personal tutor, take quizzes for your exams, give you step-by-step instructions for various tasks, hold back-and-forth conversations with you, and even explain different coding approaches. It is clear that Gemini Advanced is made for advanced or professional users who want AI help to improve their productivity and creative work. Google said that Gemini Advanced will get multimodal capabilities in the future, which will let you upload documents and images so that you can deeply analyze them or add context to your queries. It will soon be integrated into Gmail, Google Docs, and Google Workspace.
