Google introduced its new artificial intelligence (AI) model called Gemini 1.5, almost two months after its initial release. “The model delivers dramatically enhanced performance, with a breakthrough in long-context understanding across modalities,” the company said Thursday in a blog post.
The new model, in addition, comes a week after the introduction of Gemini 1.0 Ultra, which the tech company said is the “most capable model.” Google said Gemini 1.5 Pro, which is the first Gemini 1.5, achieves comparable quality to 1.0 Ultra while using less computations.
“This new generation also delivers a breakthrough in long-context understanding,” CEO Sundar Pichai said in the post.
Pichai said Google has significantly increased the amount of information the models can process, running up to one million tokens consistently, and “achieving the longest context window of any large-scale foundation model yet.”
“Longer context windows show us the promise of what is possible. They will enable entirely new capabilities and help developers build much more useful models and applications,” he added.—AA
