💥 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗚𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶 𝟮.𝟬, 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗙𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗚𝗣𝗧-𝟰𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗲-𝟯.𝟲 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝘁! And they start a huge effort on agentic capabilities.

🚀 The performance improvements are crazy for such a fast model:
‣ Gemini 2.0 Flash outperforms the previous 1.5 Pro model at twice the speed
‣ Now supports both input AND output of images, video, audio and text
‣ Can natively use tools like Google Search and execute code

➡️ If the price is on par with previous Flash iteration ($0.30 / M tokens, to compare with GPT-4o's $1.25) the competition will have a big problem with this 4x cheaper model that gets better benchmarks 🤯

🤖 What about the agentic capabilities?

‣ Project Astra: A universal AI assistant that can use Google Search, Lens and Maps
‣ Project Mariner: A Chrome extension that can complete complex web tasks (83.5% success rate on WebVoyager benchmark, this is really impressive!)
‣ Jules: An AI coding agent that integrates with GitHub workflows

I'll be eagerly awaiting further news from Google!
