Google announced a “major upgrade” to its Gemini AI Chatbot. He said he was bringing the Gemini 1.5 Flash Large Language Model (LLM) at free version of its chatbot, providing faster response times and improved accuracy.
“Today, we’re upgrading our free experience to Gemini 1.5 Flash. With Gemini 1.5 Flash, you’ll notice overall improvements in quality and latency, with particularly notable improvements in image reasoning and understanding,” the company said.
The company also said it is quadrupling Gemini’s pop-up window to 32,000 tokens — the basic units of input and output in a language model. That means users can have longer conversations and ask Gemini more complex questions for free.
The company also said it will soon add the ability to upload files via Google Drive or directly from a smartphone or PC – a feature available in Gemini Advanced.
Gemini 1.5 Flash is now available to all Gemini users on web and mobile, in over 40 languages and over 230 countries and territories.
