Google has introduced its Gemini Large Language Model (LLM) in the Ultra 1.0 iteration, which will be available on OnePlus and Oppo phones later this year. The announcement was made by the companies at Google’s Cloud Next 2024 conference.
The Gemini LLM has various tiers, with the smallest one being Nano, designed to run on-device and set to arrive on the Pixel 8 shortly. On the other hand, Ultra is the most advanced cloud-based version used to power the Gemini Advanced chatbot. Ultra has the capability to understand complex tasks and context to provide accurate responses.
Aside from Gemini, OnePlus and Oppo phones will also receive specific Google Cloud AI features, though details on which features are still unknown. It is also unclear how different “Gemini Ultra coming to OnePlus and Oppo phones” is from accessing Google’s Gemini Advanced chatbot via a browser.
More information is expected to be released in the coming weeks and months as the implementation of this new technology still seems to be a bit distant. Recently, OnePlus announced its own version of Google’s Magic Eraser would be available on some of its devices, indicating that Oppo and OnePlus are fully embracing the AI trend.
