Gemini 1.5 has been announced as an upgrade to make the AI-powered chatbot perform faster. The announcement for the new update was made previously on May 2024.

The new update can be accessed in the unpaid version of the chatbot and it will be available on both mobile and web browsers. The Gemini 1.5 Flash update will be available across 230 countries and around 40 languages.

Gemini 1.5 Flash Features

The Gemini update promises to provide users with quick and quality responses. Improvements in the latency have also been made such as in understanding the image and reasoning.

Gemini Advanced users can now have longer conversations and ask even more complex questions to the chatbot. This is due to the increase in tokens to 32k tokens.

Google has also stated that the Gemini 1.5 Flash new update is more efficient than the Gemini 1.5 Pro. Furthermore, the company has said that Gemini users, regardless of which version they use, will be able to upload files from Google Drive and other devices such as phones or computers. This feature was previously exclusive to Gemini Advanced users.

Gemini will also introduce linking to improve the accuracy of information as well as to allow users to verify the content in the responses provided. This linking feature is expected to decrease the amount of 'hallucinations' that the chatbot may experience.

Additionally, users can access additional information in the chatbot's responses by simply clicking on the chip that presides towards the end of a sentence or paragraph.

Google plans to make Gemini available in even more countries and integrate it into more platforms. Other plans in the working also include Gemini for teenagers which will have added safety protocols in place.
