During the Google I/O 2023 event, Google unveiled its upcoming AI model named 'Gemini'. Originally slated for launch next week, recent reports suggest that Google may postpone the release to January 2024. Sources cited by The Information indicate that Gemini encountered challenges in handling non-English queries, prompting Google CEO Sundar Pichai to delay the launch. The report emphasizes the importance of language support for Gemini to compete with or surpass OpenAI’s GPT-4, noting that Google has made strides in meeting this standard in certain aspects. Pichai had previously mentioned the company's focus on delivering Gemini 1.0 promptly while finalizing the comprehensive version of the next-generation AI model. When introduced at Google I/O in May, Google positioned Gemini as its most potent model, building upon PaLM 2 and developed by the Brain Team and DeepMind. Described as 'multimodal,' Gemini is expected to handle diverse content types, including images and text, while incorporating memory and planning capabilities. The AI model may integrate various AI models, with Google planning to utilize it internally across its products and make it available to developers and cloud customers in various sizes and capabilities. Pichai emphasized that Gemini would be 'highly efficient with tools and API integrations.' The forthcoming AI model is anticipated to power Google’s existing AI-driven products such as Search, Google Assistant, and the popular chatbot Bard.
