Google Gemini, which was unveiled in December, is evolving to support an entire ecosystem, from everyday products to APIs and platforms that aid developers and businesses in innovation.
Google claims that Ultra 1.0 is the first large language model to outperform human experts on MMLU (massive multitask language understanding), a test that uses a combination of 57 subjects to evaluate knowledge and problem-solving abilities.

Users can access Gemini Advanced by subscribing to the new Google One AI Premium plan, priced at $19.99 per month.
Google plans to bring Gemini models to products that people and businesses use every day, including Workspace and Google Cloud. More details on what’s coming for developers and Cloud customers will be shared next week.
