Gemini advanced is here and image
generation is just one thing it can do. <branded logo intro> Hey friends! I’m Tasia Custode and today we’re
hands-on with Gemini Advanced features. So, what’s new in Gemini? Well, for starters,
the name. We’ve officially said goodbye to Bard. It’s been nice knowing ya. Bard
is officially Gemini, and for this video, we’re focusing specifically on
Gemini Advanced features. Let’s go! So first things first, since Bard is no longer,
you’ll access Gemini and Gemini Advanced from gemini.google.com. And yes, all your previous
Bard chats will be copied over for you in this re-branding. Gemini Advanced is powered by
Gemini Ultra 1.0, or what Google says is their largest and most capable state-of-the-art
AI model. With the Ultra 1.0 model, they say that Gemini Advanced is far more capable of highly
complex tasks like coding, logical reasoning, following nuanced instructions, and
collaborating on creative projects. In a nutshell, Google is saying Gemini Advanced, powered by Ultra 1.0 is more powerful than
ChatGPT’s GPT4 model. Both of which are paid subscription-based models.
So let’s get into that pricing. If you want to upgrade to Gemini Advanced,
you’ll need to purchase a new Google One AI Premium Plan for $20USD per month.
But, you get a free two-month trial. What’s nice about this Premium plan is
that you’re not paying just for Gemini Advanced, but you’re also getting 2TB of
Google Drive storage and with the plan, you’ll soon be able to use Gemini in
Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sheets and more. Remember Duet AI? If not, you can get a
refresher by watching that video here or via the links in the description below.
But, Duet AI was where we saw all the Google Workspace AI features like help me
write, help me visualize, and so on. So, Duet AI is also being rebranded and will
be known as Gemini for Workspace - and that’s what will also be included in the $
20-a-month plan. Are ya following along? Good. OK now for the new features of Gemini
Advanced. The first thing I noticed was the speed. It’s noticeably faster on
every query. I’ve timed it for ya to give you an estimate of how long a query takes, but
it’s generally about 3-5 seconds for me on an inquiry. It takes the longest when it comes
to image generation, which we’ll talk about in a minute - but it creates multiple
images for me in about 10-14 seconds. So let’s talk a little bit about how Gemini
Advanced structures responses. Because, this, I love. So I’m going to show you a little
comparison here for how this can look. Here, I’ve toggled regular ol Gemini on, which
is powered by Gemini Pro by the way. You can see here that I’ve asked it to create a facebook
post promoting my latest youtube video. I told it vaguely what the video is about and this
is what Gemini produced. It’s one rather long facebook post. But check out what happens when
I ask Gemini Advanced the exact same thing. So I’m going to toggle Advanced on. And now I’ll
ask it the same thing. Check this out - Gemini Advanced gives options and tips. Typically,
I’ve been given 3 options every time. So, this way I can choose which option I
like the best and I can keep in mind the extra tips this Advanced query has given
me like using certain hashtags, adding images, adding a CTA. But the thing I love about this
structure and the different tone options is that now you can just tell it what option you like and
you can have it generate anything else you need in the same tone as that option. Here’s what I mean.
I’m going to tell it I like option 3 the best, using that same tone, create a tweet promoting
that video. And here we go in under 4 seconds, I’ve once again been given 3 options, but this
time they are all in that humorous tone I like and it’s understood the context
of what I needed. Love this. These options won’t be the case every time
you prompt, but it’s worked really well for me when I’m doing a social push or when
I need to craft emails and the like. This structure with the options allows for a more
creative collaboration experience with Gemini Advanced. So I really encourage you to test
Gemini Advanced when it comes to collaborating on creative work with you, test it out for
complex tasks like coding, logical reasoning, and the like. And if you’ve
used Gemini Advanced already, I’m curious to know your thoughts when it
comes to these things, so comment below. But now for a giant, huge, feature
- image creation - which by the way, at least as of right now, works with both
the free Gemini version and Gemini Advanced. All you have to do is ask Gemini to create an
image for you in any style you like. So think, futuristic, comic book style, oil painting,
photograph, and so on. In a matter of seconds, a few different images are created for you.
And there are a lot of things we can do once we have images generated in Gemini. First, you
can hover over an image to download an image in full size. This takes just a few seconds,
typically. You can ask it to generate more images by clicking on ‘generate more’. This
will not get rid of the first set of images, but create more for you to choose from.
You can download all the images in one go by clicking the share icon under the images
and selecting ‘download all images’. If you want to edit your images, you can simply
prompt Gemini with what you’d like edited. So you could say something like “I like the
fourth image you generated but add whatever it is you like or takeaway something. You could
also ask it to change the color scheme as well, so maybe I’ll ask for this in black and
white. You get the idea here. So the images aren’t going to be the exact same every time
and because this is more creative, sometimes it’ll give you the version it thinks is best,
but it’ll be really true to what you’re asking. So keep in mind, you don’t have to
create images on their own. You can ask Gemini to also include an image
with whatever else you’re asking. So I could say, write a short story about
a pop star touring the world and breaking records. Include an image of her in concert.
And you can see here in a matter of seconds, with very little detail, it’s generated a
story with the image I’ve asked for. This could be really useful if you’re stuck on
an image for a blog post - just have Gemini help. When you generate an image alongside
content, you can hover over that image to not only download it, but to change it. So,
if you don’t like the image it gives you, click on ‘change image’ and here you’ll
see a few more options to choose from. Another exciting feature is that along
with this Gemini Advanced launch, Google has rolled out a mobile experience with a
new app on Android and in the Google App on iOS. So on Android, you’ll download the Google
Gemini app - it is a standalone app. If you download the Gemini app or opt-in through
Google Assistant, you'll be able to access it from the app or anywhere else you normally
activate Google Assistant — hitting the power button or corner swiping on select phones, or
saying the wake word which is 'hey' and then you know what it is. I don't want to say it to wake your devices. This will enable a new overlay experience that offers access to Gemini
as well as contextual help right on your screen. So Google hasn’t fully replaced
Google Assistant with Gemini yet, but you can see where we’re going here. On iOS, Gemini and Gemini Advanced are baked
into your Google app. So if you don’t have the Google app, you’ll download that on
iOS, where Gemini lives as a toggle at the top of the app. So with a tap, you toggle
between Google search and Gemini. And yes, all your chats are saved across platforms from
web to Android to iOS. With Gemini on your device, you can type, talk, or add an
image while you’re on the go. And now for the availability. For now, Gemini Advanced is available
in over 150 countries in English only, but it can respond to queries in other languages
in countries where Gemini is available. It’ll be available in more languages and places soon.
It’s also not available yet to users under 18. So now I need to hear from you. What do you
