That was fast: Google pushed an update to Gemini for Android last night that enabled auto sending queries when you invoke it via a swipe up gesture or long press of the power button. Previously queries only auto sent if you invoked Gemini via "Hey Google." Hopefully continued conversation... show more

Another point of feedback: While it's nice that Gemini uses Android's modern Photo Picker, the Photo Picker is currently quite limited. It doesn't support selecting from cloud media libraries nor does it support every local folder. If Gemini instead used the GET_CONTENT intent, the Photo Picker would still be invoked but there would be an additional "Browse" button that would open the system file picker. This would let us select photos that aren't seen by Photo Picker, like downloaded images. (I'm aware that the Photo Picker is preparing to add integration with cloud media providers like Google Photos and if you're my subscriber you know there's already a way to activate it, but we don't know when that'll roll out.)

Unlike Google Assistant, the Gemini pop-up follows the system theme on Android. Google for some reason made the Assistant pop-up always be in dark mode, so this is a nice change.

@Google I reinstall Pixel Extended AOSP 13 Rom that I use on K20 Pro (Raphael) but I choose US in the begining of setup. Now, I can use Gemini in Turkey. I didnt add any different language and reagion. Just, US and English.

@Google Yes, that was fast! I was surprised to see it respond without the extra taps!🎉

Gemini for Android is here! This new app makes it easier to access Google's chatbot, powered by the Gemini Pro LLM, right from your Android device. You can ask Gemini a question by tapping the launcher icon or long-pressing the power button. Once invoked, the Gemini overlay lets you enter a text or text+image prompt. You can tap the camera icon to snap a photo or press the "add this screen" button to take a screenshot of the current page to include in your prompt. The Gemini app for Android is available on Google Play with support for English, but support for Korean and Japanese will be coming next week. While there won't be an app for iOS, iPhone users can access Gemini by opening the Google App and tapping the "Gemini" button up top. How can you long-press the power button to invoke Gemini if that gesture is handled by Google Assistant? The answer is that the Gemini Android app can replace Google Assistant as your default assistant if you want, meaning all the ways you'd normally invoke Google Assistant on your phone can instead invoke Gemini. Unfortunately, Gemini currently doesn't offer ALL the same functionality as Google Assistant and requires an active data connection, but more features will be added over time. There's also now a Gemini Advanced tier, which offers access to Google's most powerful Ultra 1.0 LLM. Access to Gemini Advanced requires a subscription to the new $20/month "AI Premium" Google One plan, which offers the same benefits as the 2TB plan but adds access to Gemini Advanced and soon Gemini features in Gmail, Docs, & other Workspace apps (formerly under the Duet AI umbrella). Gemini Advanced is available in English on the web.

Google just dropped its most powerful model and GPT-4's biggest competitor, Gemini Ultra. Here's what stands out: 1. You can opt out of training data when signing up 2. There is a digital watermark applied to all images generated by Imagen 2 within Gemini Ultra (but you can't see it) 3. Ultra is much more capable of complex tasks than Gemini Pro, such as coding, logical reasoning, and following longer/more detailed instructions. 4. There's a brand new Google Gemini App on Google Play and the App Store (in the US only for now) 5. Gemini on Android supports some existing Google Assistant features like controlling your Home devices, setting alarms, and more 6. Gemini on Android can pull data from Google Flights, Google Hotels, Google Maps, Workspace, and YouTube and be invoked by saying “Hey Google” 7. Bard is now fully rebranded as Gemini (RIP Bard) 8. It’s finally coming to Canada 🇨🇦 9. Gemini Ultra is priced at $20/mo (same price as ChatGPT) but has a 2-month free trial I'll be testing it out and sharing more thoughts in my newsletter tomorrow morning. If you've tried it, what are your first impressions? Let me know where it performed better/worse than GPT-4.

J-Cal Explains Why Google is UNDERRATED in AI 👀 On E227, the besties discussed Google's value in a post-search world if AI replaces traditional search. @jason broke down why he thinks Google is being slept on: "I think there's a chance that we're underestimating the power of Google's ad network right now." "They have four or five products that are one or two billion users per month. You have YouTube, Google Docs, Android." "They have such a data advantage and such a deep integration into people's lives because they use three or four services, I think Google's gonna figure this out." "It's quite possible that knowing your queries in Gemini, knowing what you're doing in Calendar, knowing what you're watching on YouTube could lead to a stream of more targeted ads that do better and are more valuable." "We've been seeing a number of startups that are figuring out how to use your queries and what you're doing in AI to present to you search results." "So imagine you're doing a Gemini search and on the side of it, it's giving you a rolling list of ads or offers that you might be more interested in." "That could be a better advertising product than even search itself." "I think YouTube search is the place to go all-in." "Right now, when you do a YouTube search, it just gives you 10 links, right? It just gives you that rolling thing." "You should be able to ask a question to YouTube, and you should be able to ask questions to your calendar." "You should be able to say, who have I met with over the last 10 years? Who I'm no longer in touch with and what are they up to?" "And it should do a Gemini search inside of Google Calendar. It's very light right now." "And then if you did that on YouTube, this would train people at the point of pain in a very deep way without sacrificing Google Search queries too aggressively."

UX Improvement to Gemini CLI interactive shells 🧑‍💻 As of v0.18.0+ it is now much easier to tell when an interactive shell is awaiting user input by a set loading phrase letting you know so 🔃 You can press Ctrl+f in Gemini CLI to focus/interact with shell commands that require user input (git commit, nvim, npm create etc.). Previously the loading phrases would continue spinning making it seem that Gemini CLI was thinking when in reality it was awaiting input. This was the case in one of Theo - t3.gg recent videos where it seemed like Gemini CLI was working away for 55+ mins when really it wanted his input 😵‍💫 I've added the custom loading phrase, hopefully this helps!

Google says AI will now dominate its search experience. When we tested vague queries that might require some digging, the chatbot tried to strike up a personal conversation instead 🤡

Google has a Gemini Problem, and Chamath has a plan to fix it 📈 On E225, the besties discussed how Google can cut ChatGPT's lead over Gemini without killing its $200B/year search ads business. David Sacks: "I think the problem that Google has with respect to ChatGPT, is Gemini is not getting the usage, and ChatGPT is just growing like crazy." "If you look at how these models perform according to the benchmarks, Gemini is actually really good, but they have not caught up on the usage side." david friedberg: "Chamath, you're the CEO of Google, you've got a $200B run rate search ad business." "What's the right integration of Gemini such that you don't massively disrupt the search ad business overnight?" "Or do you not care and you're just gonna do it? I think that's the conundrum (Google) is dealing with." Chamath Palihapitiya: " The more difficult question is, what does the integration look like?" "They're already inserting Gemini in all kinds of uncomfortable ways." "So for example, if you use Gmail, or if you use Google Workspace, what happens today is all these random Gemini pop-ups come up all over the place." "That is an implementation that happened at way too junior a level by people that have no product taste." "And if you use the products every day, it would be hard for you to disagree with me." David Sacks: " The Google homepage, would you replace that with an AI chatbot?" Chamath Palihapitiya: " No. Here's what I would do: I would first go to the critical other points that are around, that today do not cannibalize the blue links." "If you look at the traffic patterns, almost as a Sankey diagram, the real thing you should be looking at here is where are the entry points into Google that then result in a clickable link." "And what it would show you is that there are certain places that are highly de-optimized today for revenue generating events." "They happen as a byproduct, but they don't happen as the use case." "So in that example, you would put Gmail as a critical place, the Google one subscription, and there's like five or six other places." "That's where I would put Gemini as the front door and start to habituate 300 to 500 million people a week in using that." "I think then you can figure out over time how much money you can make from all of that, or how it directs derivative revenue, and figure out what to do with Google dot com last." "But my point is, the experience in Gmail should be done today." "The experience in YouTube should be done today." "The experience in Google one should be done today."
