Search giant Google renamed Bard to 'Gemini' and announced a Gemini Android app for users in the US. Next to these changes, the company introduced the Gemini Advanced with Ultra 1.0, the company's "largest and most capable" AI model. The model is more capable of complex tasks such as coding, logical reasoning, detailed instructions, responses based on contextual prompts and more.

The company cited examples and explained how the model can be a personal tutor, help with coding, and assist content creators. It will offer multimodal capabilities and improve overtime. Gemini Advanced will be available in over 150 countries and territories in English. More languages will be added soon, Google said. It is available in the Google One AI Premium Plan for $19.99/month.

Users can also try the model for two months "at no cost". The plan will offer all the existing benefits of the Google One Premium plan, including 2TB storage space. "In addition, AI Premium subscribers will soon be able to use Gemini in Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets and more (formerly known as Duet AI)," Google noted. For the unaware, the company introduced its new AI model Gemini in December 2023.

"The largest model Ultra 1.0 is the first to outperform human experts on MMLU (massive multitask language understanding), which uses a combination of 57 subjects — including math, physics, history, law, medicine and ethics — to test knowledge and problem-solving abilities," Sundar Pichai said.

Pichai also said in the blog post that Gemini will also arrive on Workspace and Google Cloud. Gemini can soon be used in apps such as "Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides and Meet." For Cloud users, "Gemini will help companies boost productivity, developers code faster, and organisations to protect themselves from cyber attacks, along with countless other benefits."
