Search engine Google’s Gemini AI has upgraded by enhancing faster responses with 1.5 flash model, delivering quicker and more helpful responses, improved reasoning, and a larger context window.
With this new upgrade, Gemini will now display links to related content for fact-seeking prompts, making it easier to explore topics and reducing hallucinations. It is also rolling out to Google Messages in more countries and languages, and the Gemini mobile app is expanding its reach globally and teenagers globally will soon be able to access Gemini with additional safety measures and educational resources.
In a press statement made available to LEADERSHIP, the VP of engineering, Gemini, Amar Subramanya, said, “Every day, we learn about how people are using Gemini to be more productive, creative and curious. And with today’s update, Gemini is getting better at helping you accomplish those tasks in ways that work best for you. You can now access 1.5 Flash in the unpaid version of Gemini for faster and more helpful responses. Plus, we’re introducing a new feature to further address hallucinations, and expanding our Gemini for Teens experience and mobile app to more places.”
While people enjoy exploring new topics with Gemini as their go-to research partner, Subramanya revealed that the team added related content for fact-seeking prompts in Gemini, thereby reducing hallucinations and making it easier to explore websites that help one learn more.
“Starting today for English language prompts in certain countries, you can access this additional information on topics directly within Gemini’s responses. In addition to related content links, Gemini’s double-check feature verifies responses by using Google Search to highlight which statements are corroborated or contradicted on the web,” he added.
In the coming week, the VP disclosed that the team is expanding Gemini access to teenagers globally, in over 40 languages, adding that teens who meet the minimum age requirement to manage their own Google Account will be able to access Gemini to do things like better understand school subjects, prepare for university or get help with creative projects.
