Gemini 2.0 Household expands for builders
At this time we announced exciting updates that make Gemini 2.0 obtainable to extra builders and manufacturing use. The next fashions at the moment are obtainable within the Gemini API by way of Google AI Studio and in Vertex AI:
- Gemini 2.0 Flash is now usually obtainable, with larger charge limits, stronger efficiency, and simplified pricing.
- Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite, a brand new variant that’s our most cost-efficient mannequin but, is now obtainable in public preview.
- Gemini 2.0 Professional, an experimental replace to our greatest mannequin but for coding and sophisticated prompts, is now obtainable.
Along with the recently-launched Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental, our Flash variant that causes earlier than answering, these releases make Gemini 2.0 capabilities obtainable to a broad vary of use circumstances and functions.
Mannequin options
Gemini 2.0 Flash gives a complete suite of options, together with native instrument use, a 1 million token context window, and multimodal enter. It at present helps textual content output, with picture and audio output capabilities and the Multimodal Reside API deliberate for basic availability within the coming months. Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite is cost-optimized for giant scale textual content output use circumstances.
Mannequin efficiency
The Gemini 2.0 fashions ship vital efficiency enhancements over Gemini 1.5 throughout a spread of benchmarks.
As with prior models, Gemini 2.0 Flash defaults to a concise model that makes it simpler to make use of and reduces value. It can be prompted to make use of a extra verbose model that produces higher ends in chat-oriented use circumstances.
Gemini Pricing
We continue to scale back prices with Gemini 2.0 Flash and a pair of.0 Flash-Lite. Each have a single worth per enter sort, eradicating the Gemini 1.5 Flash distinction between quick and lengthy context requests. This implies the price of each 2.0 Flash and Flash-Lite will be decrease than Gemini 1.5 Flash with mixed-context workloads, regardless of the efficiency enhancements that each ship.
Observe these hyperlinks to be taught extra about token counting for various modalities, about Gemini Developer API pricing, and about Vertex AI pricing.
You can begin constructing with the newest Gemini fashions in 4 traces of code, with an business main free tier and charge limits to scale to manufacturing. We’re impressed by your progress thus far and might’t wait to see how you’ll use these newest Gemini fashions. Blissful constructing!
