If Google's AI terminology seemed confusing before, it is now a thing of the past. Google simplified its AI landscape for better clarity.
Google rebrands Bard to Gemini, aligning smoothly with Google's AI model introduced in December. This renaming isn't just for show; it's a deliberate move to bring clarity.
The idea behind the rebranding is simple: users need to know they're engaging with the cutting-edge Gemini Pro 1.0 model via the chatbot. This shift is aimed at enhancing the user experience and improving overall understanding of the technology at play. In a nutshell, Google is simplifying things to make the interaction with artificial intelligence smoother and more straightforward.
As Google Bard becomes Gemini, the landscape of the AI chatbot takes a substantial step forward. It is more than just a name change; it signifies a new identity in artificial intelligence. The commitment to delivering the best of Google tech through its AI assistant is evident in the multifaceted capabilities of Gemini.
The integration of multimodal capabilities, coupled with the intuitive Google Assistant prompt, propels Gemini into the forefront of AI innovation. Users can now expect a more engaging, interactive, and creative experience when interacting with Google's AI assistant.
While Gemini's free plan remains your reliable choice for everyday queries, Gemini Advanced takes your experience to unprecedented heights.
