Google finally showcased its AI capabilities and possible challenger to ChatGPT recently and it made its case with a strong demo video that showed its AI prowess. Many people were instantly impressed with Gemini and how it was quickly responding to queries and how smartly it was able to pick up the cues which made for an impressive showing.
However, Google has admitted that the demo video wasn’t showing real-time results, in fact, some of the moves from Gemini were timed to give you the impression that the AI was quickly responding to the queries.
The details of these edited parts in the video have been pointed out in a Bloomberg report. Google has admitted that the Gemini Ai video demo was created using still frames from a video and the replies were given using text.
So, technically what this means is that the Gemini demo video is not starring the AI chatbot from Google but edited to make you feel that Gemini is ready and cooking to rival ChatGPT and other chatbots. What the demo video clearly shows us is the future of Gemini AI and what it promises for users.
Google made a rousing announcement for Gemini, which the whole world has been waiting to see and then they get this from a company that probably has all the tools to become a serious force in the AI arena.
But the fact that Google had to edit the video to fasten the responses of Gemini suggests the AI tech is still in the development stage, which explains the reason behind calling it Gemini 1.0. See, there is no harm in building a product at their own pace, and with respect to AI, most people would prefer that way.
The competition is fierce but if Google had straightaway said the Gemini demo video was edited to show its potential, nobody would have batted an eyelid. But it didn’t happen and that’s Google once again facing questions about its decisions on things like AI, something we previously saw with the Google Duplex demo video back at the Google I/O 2018 keynote, which later turned out to be a pre-recorded voice following instructions.
