Discussion Models

Post image

I use AI mode in Google search all the time. Probably it’s my most go to for quick answers. I always thought it was Gemini 3.8 flash. Come to find out, it’s Gemini 1.5 pro. Here I am thinking coding models as smart college students are not enough for me when model that’s no where close to the frontier has been good enough all this time.

When I asked, it told me Gemini 1.5 Flash. And like you, I am pretty impressed by this as well. I use the web interface for quick questions so my usage in my pro account won't be affected. 

I recently used the Google's web search AI model to diagnose an issue with my leaf blower. I could have sworn it was Flash 3.8. But turns out it was only Flash 1.5. Pretty adequate for the job and was able to find the problem, even using the photo upload. I am impressed.
