Google unleashed Gemini 2.0 this week, packing its latest AI model with autonomous capabilities and multimodal features.
What’s immediately noticeable in this release is that Google sees AI chatbots as evolving into AI Agents—customized software that uses generative AI to interact with users and understand and execute tasks in real time.
“With new advances in multimodality—like native image and audio output—and native tool use, it will enable us to build new AI agents that bring us closer to our vision of a universal assistant,” Google CEO Sundar Pichai said.
The model builds upon Gemini 1.5’s multimodal foundations with new native image generation and text-to-speech abilities, alongside improved reasoning skills.
According to Google, the 2.0 Flash variant outperforms the previous 1.5 Pro model on key benchmarks while running at twice the speed.
This model is currently available for users who pay for Google Advanced—the paid subscription designed to compete against Claude and ChatGPT Plus.
