The Gemini Family
Gemini is Google DeepMind's flagship multimodal AI model, designed to understand and generate text, images, audio, video, and code natively.
Model Tiers
Gemini Nano: A compact model designed to run on-device (smartphones, tablets). Powers features like summarization and smart reply on Pixel phones.
Gemini Pro: The mid-tier model for general-purpose tasks. Powers Google AI Studio and many Google product integrations.
Gemini Ultra: The most capable tier, designed for highly complex reasoning, coding, and multimodal tasks.
Native Multimodality
Unlike models that bolt on image understanding as an add-on, Gemini was trained from the ground up to process multiple types of data. This means it can seamlessly reason across text, images, charts, and code in a single conversation.
Integration Across Google
Gemini is deeply integrated into Google's ecosystem: Search (AI Overviews), Gmail (email drafting), Docs (writing assistance), Sheets (formula generation), and Android. This gives it unmatched distribution to billions of users.
