Google Launches Gemini, an Advanced AI Model
Google has unveiled its latest artificial intelligence (AI) model, Gemini, which surpasses OpenAI’s GPT-4 as the most advanced AI model available. Gemini is a multimodal model that combines different types of information and comes in three versions: Ultra, Pro, and Nano. One notable feature of Gemini is its ability to perform advanced math and specialized coding. In benchmark tests, Gemini outperformed GPT-4 in 30 out of 32 academic benchmarks for large language models.
Criticism of Gemini’s Promotion
Some critics have questioned Google’s claims about Gemini’s superiority over GPT-4. One machine learning developer on social media expressed doubts about Google’s marketing tactics and accused them of cherry-picking examples to promote Gemini. The developer later criticized Google for creating a misleading promotional video for Gemini’s release.
Benchmarks and Parameters
Social media users pointed out several concerns with Google’s benchmark tests for Gemini. They noted that Google used an outdated version of GPT-4 for comparison, making the results redundant. Furthermore, the prompts given to both models were not identical, which could significantly impact the outcomes. Users also raised questions about the use of an advanced model of Gemini against GPT-4’s advanced version called “turbo.”
User Experiences with Gemini
Some users dismissed Google’s benchmarks and shared their own experiences with Gemini compared to GPT-4. One user found Gemini underwhelming through Google’s Bard tool and decided to stick with GPT-4. Another user in app development posted screenshots comparing the code generation capabilities of both models, highlighting GPT-4’s superior response.
Future Plans for Gemini
Google plans to make Gemini more widely available to the public in early 2024. The model will also be integrated with Google’s suite of apps and services.
Hot Take: Questions Surrounding Gemini’s Superiority
While Google claims that Gemini is the most advanced AI model, critics have raised valid concerns about the benchmarks, methods, and marketing used by Google. The discrepancies between Gemini and GPT-4’s comparisons, as well as users’ underwhelming experiences with Gemini, highlight the need for further evaluation of its capabilities. As Gemini prepares for a broader release in 2024, it remains to be seen whether it can truly outperform GPT-4 and deliver on its promises.
