Google launched its new AI model called Gemini with much fanfare but a company video titled \u201cHands-on with Gemini: Interacting with multimodal AI\u201d which hit more than 1.5 million views in just a day may have been \u201cpretty much faked\u201d, a report claimed on Friday. The video demo of Gemini shows a series of carefully tuned text prompts with still images, \u201cclearly selected and shortened to misrepresent what the interaction is actually like\u201d, reports The Verge.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn one hand, Gemini does appear to have generated the responses shown in the video. But viewers are misled about the speed, accuracy, and fundamental mode of interaction with the model,\u201d the report claimed. Google said the video \u201cshows real outputs from Gemini and \u201cwe made a few edits to the demo.\u201d Parmy Olsen at Bloomberg posted on X: \u201cPSA about Google\u2019s jaw-dropping video demo of Gemini \u2013 the one with the duck\u201d. \u201cIt was not carried out in real-time or in voice. The model was shown still images from video footage and human prompts narrated afterwards, per a spokesperson,\u201d she said. Oriol Vinyals, Google DeepMind\u2019s VP of Research, posted on X that he is happy to see the interest around the \u201cHands-on with Gemini\u201d video.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe gave Gemini sequences of different modalities \u2014 image and text in this case \u2014 and had it respond by predicting what might come next\u201d. \u201cAll the user prompts and outputs in the video are real, shortened for brevity. The video illustrates what the multimodal user experiences built with Gemini could look like. We made it to inspire developers,\u201d he said. Google on Wednesday spiced up the generative AI race with introducing Gemini, its most capable and general model yet with state-of-the-art performance across many leading benchmarks, in three iterations. The first version, Gemini 1.0, is optimised for different sizes: Ultra, Pro and Nano.<\/p>\n
Google\u2019s AI chatbot Bard will use a fine-tuned version of Gemini Pro for more advanced reasoning, planning, understanding and more. It will be available in English in more than 170 countries and territories, and \u201cwe plan to expand to different modalities and support new languages and locations in the near future,\u201d said Google. The company also brought Gemini to Pixel 8 Pro, powering new features like Summarise in the Recorder app and rolling out Smart Reply in Gboard, starting with WhatsApp, with more messaging apps coming next year. In the coming months, Gemini will be available in more of Google products and services like Search, Ads, Chrome and Duet AI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
