700,000 words, eleven hours of audio material or an hour-long video – Google’s new AI model can capture and analyze these enormous amounts of material.
In the software race with artificial intelligence Google is following suit with an improvement to its Gemini technology. The Internet company presented the further development Gemini 1.5, which can, among other things, evaluate longer videos and texts.
As a test, the software was searched for funny moments in the 400-page log of conversations from the Apollo 11 space mission to the moon, Google wrote in a blog entry. Gemini 1.5 found three of them. After uploading a drawing of a boot without further comment, the software automatically linked it to the moment Neil Armstrong took his first step on the moon.
Gemini 1.5 Pro can capture and analyze up to one hour of video, up to eleven hours of audio recordings, texts up to 700,000 words long and up to 30,000 lines of software code, Google explained. The Internet giant is in competition with, among others, the ChatGPT inventor OpenAI, which triggered a hype around AI just over a year ago. Google recently combined its apps and services with AI under the brand name Gemini. The Gemini 1.5 model will initially be available to developers and enterprise customers before everyone can benefit from it.
