Google launches custom Gems and enhanced image generation with Imagen 3 in Gemini
Google has announced several new updates to its AI chatbot, Gemini. These features, initially previewed at Google I/O, are designed to enhance the user experience and expand Gemini’s capabilities. The updates include the introduction of «Gems» for Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise users, and the integration of the latest image generation model, Imagen 3, across all Gemini platforms.
Personalized help in Gemini with GemsGems, as Google describes them, are custom versions of Gemini that can be tailored to act as experts on specific topics or to achieve certain goals. Users can create a Gem by providing instructions, giving it a name, and then interacting with it whenever they need assistance.
The potential applications for Gems are vast, from brainstorming ideas to writing social media captions. To assist users in getting started, Google has also launched a set of pre-made Gems for various scenarios, such as a learning coach, brainstormer, career guide, writing editor, and coding partner.
