Google is enhancing its software offerings with several new features and improvements. The Gemini 1.5 Pro vision language model (LLM) is now capable of detecting objects within images, allowing users to visualize bounding boxes around identified objects. Developers have begun experimenting with this feature, showcasing its potential for various applications. Additionally, Google is integrating Gemini into the Firebase Console, providing developers with a coding assistant to help with app development, optimization, and troubleshooting. A live event is scheduled for 9:30 AM PST tomorrow to discuss Gemini's capabilities within Firebase. The Files by Google app is also set to introduce document summarization features, while a new search recall shortcut may be added to the Google app. Furthermore, enhancements to cross-device services and a simplified account switcher UI are in the works. However, some users have reported challenges with Gemini's ability to accurately interpret requests, suggesting that while the technology shows promise, it still requires refinement.

can you use Gemini-1.5 object detection to solve real-life vision use cases? well almost... but we are not there yet. I wondered if I could use Gemini to detect and count how many cars are on the left and right lanes. ↓ I learned that: https://t.co/YBZQI1HFyy https://t.co/kekbXmJ9dD
