Logan Kilpatrick on Google’s new Gemini Models, AI Agents, AGI, and more

From the creator

Google just released two upgraded Gemini 1.5 models 1.5-Pro-002 and 1.5-Flash-002 — achieving new, state-of-the-art performance across math. I sat down with Logan Kilpatrick, product lead for Google AI Studio, to discuss what makes these models so unique, AI agents, AGI, and more.
