Google Gemini is Google’s AI chatbot and it’s available for free to use. It’s the direct competitor to ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot.

To access it, simply go to gemini.google.com/ and log in with your Google account.

In this video, I’ll cover all the useful functions of Gemini as well as some prompting techniques to make it much more useful for day-to-day tasks.

Gemini is a name for two different things. One is the AI chatbot that you use on the website. Gemini is also the name of the technology running this chatbot and it comes in multiple models.

The free version of Gemini uses a model called Gemini Pro and the paid option, called Gemini Advanced uses a model called Gemini Ultra.

You can use Gemini in two ways, with web access or without. Gemini is trained with a large amount of data. So if you want to use it for writing or research on older topics, you can do so without real-time data.

You can turn this option on or off in settings.

To start using Gemini, simply type your prompt. You can start with a question or task.

Here are the top 10 practical prompts for using Gemini.

1 - Writing partner
Research and Content Outlining:
* Prompt: "I'm writing a blog post about [Specific Blog Post Topic]. Find and summarize 3-5 relevant and credible sources on this topic. Based on your findings, create a detailed outline for the blog post structure, including sections for introduction, key points, supporting arguments, and conclusion.

Optimizing for Readability and Engagement:
“I’ve written a draft blog post about [Blog Post Topic]. Analyze the content for readability and suggest improvements to enhance clarity and user engagement. This includes identifying any complex sentences, suggesting alternative phrasing, and incorporating elements like bullet points, images, or internal links."

2 - Email

Crafting Compelling Emails:

    Thank you for the clarity as a senior citizen 72, I still get excited about new tech. I cut my teeth selling Apple II computers and have always maintained an avid interest in technology and its progression. You're a credit to the industry. Thanks

  • @eswaravinash72
    Great video! I really enjoyed watching it. However, I noticed something that I think might need clarification. At 01:57, you mentioned Real-time responses. When I hover over Real-time responses, it states: "With real-time responses turned on, responses will show in real time while in progress. When turned off, responses will show once they are complete." I just wanted to bring this to your attention so you can verify it yourself and consider updating it if necessary. Keep up the good work!

    Venturing into storytelling and video creativity lately. VideoGPT sneaked into my toolkit, quietly elevating my content to new heights of professionalism.

  • @violetpaints
    I have paid version and i do not have the option , answer in real time. I asked Gemini to check your video and she says the option does not exist?! "In the video How to Use Google Gemini - Including New Prompts, the YouTuber mentions that there is an option to answer in real time. However, I couldn't find this option in my Google Gemini settings." I just don't see the point of paying for Gemini there's nothing I can not do with the free version. What am I missing, not understood properly?
