Overview

Google Gemini is an AI chatbot with integration into Google Workspace, rivalling Open AI’s ChatGPT, Claude by Anthropic and Microsoft Copilot. 

In December 2024, Google introduced Gemini 2.0, marking a significant advancement in AI capabilities. This iteration emphasizes ‘agentic’ AI, featuring autonomous agents capable of performing tasks with minimal human intervention.

Key features

  • Multimodal Live API: A powerful new (and free) extension that enables screen sharing and real time feedback on your desktop.
  • Multimedia Processing:The ability to generate and interpret images, audio, and text, facilitating more natural and versatile user interactions.
  • Autonomous Task Execution: Agents can independently perform complex tasks, such as online shopping or scheduling, based on simple user instructions.
  • Advanced Problem Solving: Designed for tackling complex challenges, it aids in code development and scientific exploration with precision.
  • Integrated Safety Measures: Google has integrated robust safety measures and ethical considerations into Gemini, ensuring it is safe, fair, and responsible for users.

Pros

  • Multimodal Live API: The best application of troubleshooting AI that we have tested. It is a free extension to Google Live AI Studio that can see your screen in real time and tell you what to do next.
  • Integration with Google Services: Gemini is a particularly powerful assistant in Google Workspace through integrating with Google Docs and Gmail.
  • Efficiency Across Devices: Optimized for performance, Gemini runs effectively on both mobile and cloud platforms, ensuring quick processing without heavy resource demands.
  • Enhanced Problem-Solving Abilities: Gemini surpasses GPT-4 in certain benchmarks and is .
  • Coding and Data Analysis: Ability to generate complex code and provide insights on big data sets.
  • Interactive Assistants: Gemini powers experimental projects like Project Astra, which focuses on creating AI assistants capable of providing real-time, contextual support on mobile and wearable devices.

Cons

  • Historical Output Issues: Gemini has had some problematic releases in the past, such as its image generation tool being too ‘woke’. Historically it has lagged behind ChatGPT in terms of output, but has now caught up.
  • Google Reliance: For those who rely more heavily on Microsoft or Apple applications, Gemini is not a good fit. It also does not integrate with popular automation systems like Make.com.
  • Resource Intensity: Advanced versions like Gemini Ultra require significant computational resources, making deployment expensive.

Who is Google Gemini for?

Gemini is a general purpose AI that could assist anyone who uses Google applications like Gmail, Docs, Sheets and Slides. The multimodal features also make it an outstanding virtual assistant to help with almost any software trouble shooting.
