Farewell Bard, meet Gemini.
When Google Bard first launched almost a year ago, the AI-powered chatbot had some major flaws. Since then, it has grown significantly with two large language model (LLM) upgrades and several updates. Now, Google is ready to leave Bard’s name and reputation in the past, rebranding the chatbot as Gemini.
On Thursday, Google unveiled that Bard would now be called Gemini, the name of the LLM powering the AI chatbot, “to reflect the advanced tech at its core,” according to Google.
Gemini is Google’s most capable and advanced LLM to date. The model comes in three sizes: Gemini Nano, Gemini Pro, and Gemini Ultra. The versions of Gemini are suitable for different tasks. A lightweight version of Gemini Pro powers Google Bard.
