“After Google quietly scrapped a set of in-person events to launch Gemini, its biggest artificial intelligence initiative in a decade, the company has planned a virtual preview of the new AI as soon as this week, said a person with knowledge of the situation. By giving journalists and software developers a first look at some of the technology’s capabilities, Google could relieve some pressure from investors to prove it can catch up to ChatGPT creator OpenAI. Google representatives for weeks have been giving private demonstrations of the technology to business partners but they have said that cloud customers wouldn’t get access to the primary version of Gemini until next year.”
