Google’s Gemini App Takes Over Google Play Store: The Most Capable AI Model
Google’s Gemini app is here, and it’s creating a buzz among Android users.
Google’s New Chatbot: Gemini AI
The gaming giant has now introduced its latest artificial intelligence chatbot, replacing its Bard chatbot.
What is Gemini AI?
Google has described this AI software as its “largest and most capable AI model” yet. It can understand text input seamlessly and across different information types such as text, code, audio, image, and video. This sets it apart as a state-of-the-art model in nearly every domain.
Gemini Integration with Google App
The standalone application, now available through the Google Play store, will seamlessly integrate with the Google app.
Google’s Gemini App Launch
The launch of the Gemini app came as a surprise, first leaked by media outlets earlier in the week. Despite being leaked, Google has not officially announced its release.
Gemini App: Availability Issues
As some users have reported, the app “appears to be working in limited capacity at the moment.” Some users are receiving an error message stating that “Gemini isn’t currently available.” This suggests the app is either gradually rolling out to Android users or potentially has a bug. The latter seems more likely, as some users reported that the error message disappeared after re-installing the app.
Apple iOS Users: Future Availability
It’s reasonable to assume that an app for Apple iOS users will be available in the future.
Gemini AI: Access and Pricing
Users who have gained access to the app confirmed that they accessed Gemini either via the app icon, saying “Hey Google,” or by long-pressing the power button. Currently available for free, Gemini also offers a subscription tier for more advanced features at $19.99 a month, which includes 2TB of Google One as a bonus perk.
