Google announced on Thursday that its Bard chatbot has been rebranded as Gemini, reflecting the new artificial intelligence behind it. The company introduced Gemini Advanced; a subscription service priced at $19.99 per month for U.S. customers. This package includes the more robust Ultra 1.0 AI model and offers two terabytes of cloud storage, valued at $9.99 monthly. Subscribers will also soon have access to Gemini within Gmail and Google’s productivity suite.
Known as the Google One AI Premium plan, this offering is a significant move by Google to compete with Microsoft and its partner OpenAI. It underscores the increasing competition in the market for paid AI subscription services.
Google’s Product Lead, Jack Krawczyk, highlighted that the inclusion of cloud storage and integrations with Gmail and other Google services aligns the subscription with users’ workflow needs. The target audience for Gemini Advanced is individuals seeking powerful generative AI technology capable of producing content and addressing queries without
readily available answers online.

To reach a wide user base, Google plans to leverage its extensive Android customer base, allowing Android users to easily access Gemini as their default digital assistant. The company aims to minimize friction in accessing AI by offering various entry points, including an app, the power button, or voice activation with “Hey Google.” Gemini will also be available on the Google iPhone app.
Gemini Advanced is initially available in English across 150 countries, with plans to expand its availability internationally, starting with the Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions. Additional language support for Japanese and Korean will accompany the international rollout. Users can enjoy a two-month free trial of the subscription service.
Regarding the name change, Krawczyk explained that it signifies Google’s evolution in AI, transitioning from the Bard era to the Gemini era.

Users will likely evaluate factors such as the quality of generated content, the ability to handle complex queries, and integration with popular platforms like Gmail and Microsoft Office. Additionally, performance metrics such as response time and accuracy will influence users’ preferences.
