Our take on Google’s new Gemini 1.5 model
Blog post from Swimm
Google’s Gemini 1.5 model represents a significant advancement in AI technology by improving quality and reducing computing power compared to its predecessor, the 1.0 Ultra model, and offering a substantial increase in context size to 1 million tokens. Despite these advancements, the necessity of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems remains relevant, particularly in coding applications. The model addresses the issue of limited context windows but does not fully resolve the "Needle-in-a-Haystack" problem, where accurately identifying relevant information within large datasets can be challenging, nor does it address the persistent issues of speed and cost when sending comprehensive context to language models. Consequently, while Gemini 1.5 Pro showcases impressive capabilities, it does not eliminate the need for RAG in real-world applications, where efficiency and cost-effectiveness are crucial.
