To further enhance its capabilities, Google has announced significant updates to its Gemini AI, introducing new features that enhance its versatility and user experience.

Create Gems for customized help — from coding to career advice

One of the standout features is the introduction of Gems, customizable AI experts that can be tailored to specific topics or goals. Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise users can now create and interact with Gems for assistance with various tasks, ranging from coding to career advice.

There are a number of premade Gems now available, including:

• Learning coach: helps you break down complex topics, making them easier to understand.
• Brainstormer: gives you easy inspiration — from fresh ideas for a themed party to the perfect gift for an upcoming birthday.
• Career guide: unlocks your career potential with detailed plans to refine your skills and achieve your career goals.
• Writing editor: can elevate your writing through clear, constructive feedback on everything from grammar to structure.
• Coding partner: levels up your coding skills and can help you build projects and learn as you go.

Generate high-quality images with Imagen 3

Meanwhile, Google has also upgraded its image generation capabilities with Imagen 3. This powerful model is now available across Gemini, Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise, offering users a greater ability to generate and better customize high-quality images with just a few words.

Imagen 3 incorporates safeguards to ensure responsible use, including the use of SynthID, a tool that watermarks AI-generated content, as well as limiting image generation of people to Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise.

However, to maintain prudent use of the tool, Gemini will not support the generation of photorealistic, identifiable individuals, depictions of minors or excessively gory, violent or sexual scenes.

Google will also continue to listen to feedback from early-access Gemini Advanced users as it keeps improving and gradually rolling the feature out to more users and languages soon.

To be among the first to experience these new features, try Gemini Advanced today or sign up for Gemini for Workspace.
