Google updates Gemini AI amid controversy over inaccurate imagery, introducing features while addressing concerns over biased historical depictions.
Google released two updates to its artificial intelligence (AI) model, Gemini, amid a storm of controversy on social media over “woke” inaccurate imagery produced by the model.
On Feb. 20 and then again on Feb. 21, Gemini received two new upgrades to its system. The first applies to Gemini Advanced, allowing it to now edit and run Python code snippets directly in its user interface. Users with access to the advanced version can experiment with Python-based code to see how it works prior to copying it, claiming to save time and verify functionality.
The second update hit Gemini business and enterprise plans, which now give users access to 1.0 Ultra — one of Google’s most advanced models — and employ enterprise-grade data protection. This prevents Gemini models from using conversations for training purposes.
