Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google and Alphabet, recently shared insights on the remarkable growth of the Gemini project, marking nearly two years since its inception. According to Pichai, this initiative stands as one of the company’s most significant scientific and product endeavors. He noted that the reception has been overwhelmingly positive, with AI Overviews now engaging over 2 billion users monthly. Furthermore, the Gemini app has surpassed 650 million users, and more than 70% of Google Cloud customers are actively utilizing its AI functionalities. Over 13 million developers have engaged with their generative models, showcasing the profound impact of Gemini on the tech landscape.
Pichai emphasized that Google’s full-stack approach to AI innovation has enabled them to deliver advanced capabilities more swiftly than ever. This strategy combines cutting-edge infrastructure, groundbreaking research, and extensive tooling to create products that cater to billions globally.
The evolution of the Gemini series has been particularly noteworthy. Each iteration has built on its predecessor’s strengths, allowing for more complex and nuanced interactions. For instance, Gemini 1 introduced breakthroughs in native multimodality and extended context windows, enhancing the range of information processing. Following this, Gemini 2 established foundations for more agentic capabilities and improved reasoning, making it adept at handling intricate tasks. Remarkably, the Gemini 2.5 Pro model dominated the LMArena leaderboard for over six months.
Now, with the unveiling of Gemini 3, Pichai claims this model represents the pinnacle of their AI capabilities. It merges the functionalities of its predecessors, offering unparalleled intelligence that can bring various ideas to fruition. This latest model boasts advanced reasoning abilities, capable of understanding depth and nuance that can be crucial in creative or complex problem-solving scenarios. Importantly, Gemini 3 improves significantly in discerning context and intent, allowing for more efficient user interactions with less prompting. Pichai expressed amazement at how, in just two years, AI has progressed from basic text and image comprehension to understanding subtleties in human interactions.
Starting today, Google is deploying Gemini 3 at scale, which now includes advanced reasoning capabilities in its Search function, along with new dynamic experiences. This marks the first time that Gemini is being integrated into Search from day one. Additionally, Gemini 3 will be available in the Gemini app, AI Studio, and Vertex AI, as well as in Google’s new agentic development platform, Google Antigravity.
With the launch of Gemini 3, Pichai affirmed that the company is committed to advancing the frontiers of intelligence, agentic capabilities, and personalization, making AI increasingly beneficial for a diverse range of users. He concluded with a note of optimism, indicating ongoing improvements to Gemini 3 and expressing eagerness to see the innovative applications that the community will create using this powerful tool.
