How to use Google Gemini (formerly Google Bard)

Meanwhile, new AI tools were making waves with their impressive features and ground-breaking concepts, but Google’s brainchild was getting people talking for very opposite reasons. On many occasions, Bard’s first performance was deemed inadequate. From its unfortunate premiere to its official launch, people had a hard time trusting the chatbot to provide them with accurate information or simply keep up with a discussion without going crazy.

In the time after, Google rebranded Bard as Gemini to reflect the eponymous large language model (LLM) that powers it, Gemini Pro. It also received significant enhancements. Gemini isn’t the same Bard from a year ago; now, it can have discussions that are just as beneficial as ChatGPT’s, produce photos, and integrate seamlessly with Google Workspace. 

In addition to being an excellent AI chatbot, Gemini is now a powerful generative tool that can write everything from cover letters and assignments to computer code and Excel formulas, answer questions, and provide extensive translations. When asked a question, Gemini employs AI like ChatGPT to provide answers that seem natural.

The Gemini app is now only accessible in English and for Android phones in the United States. Although we do not yet have a specific date in mind, we anticipate that it will soon spread to other nations and languages.

The addition of Gemini to the Google app for iOS is scheduled for “in the coming weeks.” Although there will not be a standalone Gemini app, Google is integrating the features of Gemini into its iPhone app.

Create images with Gemini.

The ability to request picture creation from Gemini is similar to that of ChatGPT Plus and Microsoft Copilot (also known as Bing Chat). To have Gemini create the picture you want, just provide your instructions in the chat box. 

I’m requesting that Gemini “create an image for a social media post of a plate of food to advertise a Caribbean food festival.”

Download your image or regenerate

You have the option to download, regenerate, or produce a new picture once Gemini has generated one or more. 

I chose to download the photograph that I liked the best by clicking on it. Even though it’s hard to see what’s in the bowls, this picture seems very true for Caribbean cuisine to someone who grew up there. Even though AI-generated photographs could be lacking in specifics, the food nonetheless appears delicious.
