Gemini, according to its creators, is the largest language model ever created, containing more than 1.5 billion parameters, which allows it to process and generate text much more accurately and creatively than any other existing model.
Gemini is a multimodal model, it has the ability to learn and adapt more quickly and can improve as more data is exposed to it. It will be able to understand various types of information, both the texts you write and images, and it will also be able to understand audio and programming code. This will make it an extremely flexible model.
What is the difference with Google Bard?
To differentiate the concepts, artificial intelligence models are not applications or chatbots like Google Bard, but rather they are the technology with which they work. In that sense, PaLM is currently the artificial intelligence model that Bard uses. The plan is that little by little PaLM will be replaced by Gemini within Bard.
