Introduction
Recently, I gained access to Google Gemini, along with Google's highly anticipated AI model, Ultra 1.0. In this article, I will share my first impressions and insights after conducting various tests, including coding challenges, image generation, and more.
Google Gemini Interface
Upon initial exploration, the Gemini UI stands out with its dark theme, real-time response, extensions, image upload capabilities, and even a microphone for prompts. The interface feels familiar, resembling characteristics of other language models like GPT-3.5.
Coding Challenges
To assess the coding capabilities, I subjected Gemini to a Python coding test. While the response speed was commendable, the accuracy left room for improvement. For instance, solving a logic problem related to drying shirts presented a bit of vagueness in Gemini's response compared to the precision of GPT-4.
- Test 1: Drying Shirts
- Prompt: How long will it take to dry 10 shirts in similar conditions?
- Result: Gemini provided a somewhat vague response, indicating a similar timeframe without pinpointing the exact time, unlike the more precise GPT-4.

- Test 2: Ball in a Bag
Result: Gemini struggled to deduce that the ball remained in the office, providing an incorrect answer that the ball was in London. GPT-4 demonstrated a clearer understandingg

- Test 3: Snake Game Code
Result: Gemini generated the code in multiple attempts, showcasing speed but requiring a few tries to achieve a functional result.gImage Generation
Gemini's image generation capabilities showed promise, successfully describing the objects and text in an uploaded image related to an Nvidia giveaway.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Google Gemini and Ultra 1.0 present an intriguing addition to the AI landscape. While the UI is user-friendly and image generation capabilities are notable, the coding challenges reveal areas for improvement. As the technology evolves, it will be interesting to observe how Gemini compares with other advanced language models. Keep an eye on user feedback and updates for potential enhancements.
