Google announced its latest AI advancements named Gemini yesterday, calling it the most capable AI models yet. It is already baked into Bard and it is being tested in SGE, the Search Generative Experience.
Google has already started to experiment with Gemini in Search, "where it's making our Search Generative Experience (SGE) faster for users, with a 40% reduction in latency in English in the U.S., alongside improvements in quality," Google wrote.
With that Google said it will come to more services like traditional Search, Google Ads, Chrome and other Google products. Google said this is months away, not years.
Also, Bard is now using "a fine-tuned version of Gemini Pro for more advanced reasoning, planning, understanding and more." Google called this the "biggest upgrade to Bard since it launched."
Gemini Pro with Bard will be available in English in more than 170 countries and territories, and will expand from there.
Google explained, that in early next year, Google introduce "Bard Advanced." Bard Advanced "gives you first access to our most advanced models and capabilities — starting with Gemini Ultra," Google explained.

There's a lot of work ahead of us to continue to tune Bard to be as helpful as possible:
- Giving you more control of hallucinations (try double check!)
- More multimodality
- Integration with assistive capabilities…
AI is rapidly changing and it is much fun to watch.
We’re bringing Gemini to billions of people through Google products, like Bard and Pixel, and in the coming months, Gemini will be available in more of our products and services like Search, Ads, Chrome and Duet AI.
