Google announced several key upgrades for Gemini in the past few days, making its AI chatbot even more capable than ever. The Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental reasoning AI is now available to upgrade Deep Research reports. The reasoning AI also comes with a 1 million token context window on the Gemini Advanced plan.
The 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental model also brings Personalization features to Gemini. The AI can look at your Google Search history if you allow it to. In the future, Gemini will also have access to other Google apps, including Calendar, Notes, Tasks, and Photos.
The latter is somewhat exciting, as the AI will be able to recreate itineraries based on your photos or surface information from the pictures on your device.
Speaking of photos, Google also quietly upgraded AI's image generation capabilities, and it's not all great news. Gemini can now remove watermarks from photos, essentially opening the doors to stealing copyrighted content.
Gemini also got Canvas support earlier this week. The feature improves how you collaborate with AI on document and code generation, matching a feature ChatGPT has had for a few months. More exciting is the Audio Overview feature that was previously exclusive to NotebookLM and is now available in the Gemini app.
Many of these new features are available in the free Gemini version, and all of them are available on Gemini Advanced. The point here is that Gemini has received a few massive upgrades. All you need is a Google account to start using it.
But what if you want to chat with the AI without logging in? It turns out that Gemini works without a Google account, matching a feature that's been available on ChatGPT for a while now.
