Google Launches Gemini 2.0 Flash Experimental with AI Studio Integration

Dec 11, 2024, 02:17 PM

Google has launched the experimental version of Gemini 2.0 Flash, a significant update to its AI model. The rollout has begun for some users, appearing under the Gemini Advanced dropdown list with an 'Experimental' label. The model, referred to as gemini-exp-1206, supports features such as image uploads and integration with tools like Imagen3, a code editor, and a search index. However, it does not accept people images and appears more restricted compared to its predecessor, Gemini 1.5. Early tests indicate some inconsistencies in responses. The model is also integrated into AI Studio, and reports suggest it has already been jailbroken. The release is seen as a major step for Google in advancing its AI capabilities.
