Google Introduces Gemini Chatbot Ahead of I/O Conference, Rivaling OpenAI

On May 14, TapTechNews reported that a new wave of competition has emerged in the field of artificial intelligence chatbots, with intense rivalry between Google and OpenAI. Just ahead of Google's annual I/O developer conference, the tech giant released a video showcasing what appears to be an upgraded Gemini chatbot. In the video, Gemini can simultaneously process input from both video and audio in real-time.

This video seems to have been shot at the I/O conference venue, showing Gemini smoothly handling real-time video and voice queries on a Pixel phone, providing accurate information. When asked about the ongoing setup work, Gemini correctly identified it as preparation for an important event.

The entire conversation flows naturally, with Gemini asking about details noticed by the user and successfully recognizing the event as the Google I/O developer conference, giving a brief introduction.

Google's timing for releasing this teaser is quite clever, just hours before OpenAI's event on ChatGPT. At this event, OpenAI introduced the new ChatGPT-4o large model, which has unparalleled levels of understanding, smoothness, and coherence in conversation.

While past demo videos have sparked some skepticism about such content, today's example undeniably proves that AI chatbots can seamlessly integrate audio and video inputs. This multimodal capability, coupled with very natural dialogue flow, gives us a glimpse of the future of AI interaction.

The keynote address of Google I/O conference will take place at 1:00 AM EST tomorrow, and TapTechNews will bring relevant coverage as soon as possible.
