Google Introduces 'Gemini' to Challenge OpenAI's GPT-4, an AI Surpassing Human Experts, Set to Replace Bard

Google's new AI, Gemini, comes with significant updates and advanced features. It supports an entire ecosystem, setting a new state of the art across various benchmarks.

Google has announced significant updates to its new artificial intelligence (AI), Gemini. Google CEO Sundar Pichai claimed that Gemini has evolved beyond just models to support an entire ecosystem that includes everyday products, APIs, and platforms aiding developers and businesses. The new Ultra 1.0 model will be taking on OpenAI's GPT-4 which powers the paid version of ChatGPT.  

The Ultra 1.0 made its debut in December, setting new benchmarks in text, image, audio, and video. However, it will now be available as a part of a subscription plan for all users. Pichai claims that the new advanced language model Ultra 1.0, Gemini's first model, surpasses human experts on MMLU (massive multitask language understanding), a test of knowledge and problem-solving abilities across 57 subjects. Bard, launched last year, has been rebranded as Gemini.
