"Google Unveils AI Innovations at Cloud Next 2024 Conference"
Google's Gemini 1.5 Pro, a powerful generative AI model, is now available in public preview on Vertex AI, offering a context window of up to 1 million tokens. This capability allows for tasks such as analyzing code libraries, reasoning across lengthy documents, and holding extensive conversations with chatbots. The model's multilingual and multimodal features enable it to understand images, videos, and audio streams, making it suitable for tasks like transcribing video clips and analyzing media content across different languages. Early users are leveraging its large context window for tasks such as mortgage underwriting, automating metadata tagging on media archives, and generating, explaining, and transforming code.
