Introduction
In last blog, I have written about an article Use Cases of ChatGPT in Real Life. Last Month, Google took a massive step forward for the generative AI world by releasing Gemini Ultra, the company’s most powerful chatbot ever. Gemini’s release is Google’s biggest AI move in at least a year, and Gemini is now ChatGPT’s only true competitor.
This article covers the key features and pricing details for Google’s Gemini, so you will have the information you need to determine whether Gemini is better than ChatGPT for your business needs.

What is Google Gemini?
Gemini is the new artificial intelligence model created by Google and its parent company, Alphabet.
Google Gemini is a family of AI models, like OpenAI's GPT. Gemini is also the name of Google's AI chatbot (formerly known as Bard).
“Gemini is the result of large-scale collaborative efforts by teams across Google, including our colleagues at Google Research,” according to Dennis Hassabis, CEO and co-founder of Google DeepMind.
The core of this AI model is to be multimodal, meaning it can easily understand data from various formats of information like:
Text
Code
Audio
Image
Video
2. Google Gemini comes in three sizes.
Google Gemini is designed to run on almost any device. Google claims that its three versions—Gemini Ultra, Gemini Pro, and Gemini Nano—are capable of running efficiently on everything from data centers to smartphones.
Gemini Ultra is the largest model designed for the most complex tasks. Google describes Gemini Ultra as the most capable model, which is the first one to outperform human experts on MMLU. It is completely designed for highly complex tasks and is currently in the testing phase.
Gemini Pro Google Pro is an advanced reasoning, planning, and understanding version currently used to fine-tune Google Bard. This is one of Google Bard’s biggest upgrades since its launch. It's designed to be used for a variety of different tasks. Right now, a specially trained version of it is used by the Google Gemini chatbot (formerly called Bard) to handle more complex queries. In independent testing, Gemini Pro was found slightly inferior to the corresponding GPT 3.5 Turbo" model.
Gemini Nano is designed to operate locally on smartphones and other mobile devices. This model runs on smartphones, especially Google Pixel. In theory, this would allow your smartphone to respond to simple prompts and do things like summarize text far faster than if it had to connect to an external server.
