Gemini could be Google’s ultimate weapon in the field of generative AI

Google has postponed the launch of its new artificial intelligence model, Gemini, until 2024. Billed as a revolution in AI, it will be able to process a wide range of tasks, across multiple applications, from sources as varied as text, images, audio or video.

The project was first announced last spring at the Google I/O developer conference. It is billed as a new generation of large-scale, pre-trained multimodal language model, capable of understanding natural human language, deciphering text whatever the language used, but also of processing information from an image, audio or video file. The idea is for it to feed into all Google's online services, from Bard to Gmail to Assistant, to boost their processing capabilities.
