Gemini Nano To Get Multimodal Capabilities Coming To Pixel Later This Year

For those who are unaware, Gemini Nano is a lightweight and small LLM model that can perform on-device AI tasks. Google announced the Gemini Nano in December last year along with Gemini Ultra and Gemini Pro. As of now, Gemini Nano is only available on the Google Pixel 8 series and Samsung Galaxy S24. However, in its current state, Gemini Nano takes inputs only in the text format.
With multimodal capabilities, Gemini Nano will be able to get contextual information and also get inputs from sounds, images, and spoken language. As for the availability, Google says that it will roll out multimodal capabilities to Gemini Nano starting with Pixel later this year.
