Google is introducing a new artificial intelligence (AI) model from the Gemini 2.0 family. Called Gemini 2.0 Experimental Advanced, the larger language model (LLM) will be available only to paid subscribers of Gemini. The new model release comes just days after the Mountain View-based tech giant released the Gemini 2.0 flash model on Gemini’s Android app. Notably, the 2.0 experimental advanced model can currently only be accessed on the web version of the AI chatbot.
Gemini 2.0 experimental advanced model is getting started
In a blog post, the tech giant announced the release of the second Gemini 2.0 AI model. The official codename of the model is Gemini-XP-1206 and it can be selected from the model switcher option placed at the top of the chatbot’s web interface. Notably, currently only Gemini Advanced customers will be able to opt for this model.
Although Google has yet to announce the new AI model, the name Gemini-Exp-1206 was first spotted last week when LLM Chatbot Arena (formerly known as LMSys) topped the LLM Leaderboard with a score of 1374. Was seen at the place. It currently outranks the latest version of OpenAI’s GPT-4o, Gemini 2.0 Flash and o1 series models.
Available only on the web version of Gemini, the new AI model delivers significant performance improvements in complex tasks such as coding, mathematics, reasoning, and following instructions. Google said it can provide detailed multi-step instructions for do-it-yourself (DIY) projects, which previous models have struggled with.
However, the tech giant warns that the 2.0 Experimental Advanced Model is available in early preview and may sometimes not work as expected. Additionally, the AI model will not currently have access to real-time information and will be incompatible with some Gemini features. The company did not mention features that will not work with the new LLM.
Specifically, Gemini Live is part of the Gemini Advanced subscription. It can be subscribed through Google One AI premium plan, which is priced at Rs. After one month free trial, Rs 1,950 per month.
