Starting in November, we’re expanding the ability to upload and analyze files to all Gemini users in a limited capacity, with a smaller 32k token context window (~50 pages of text) and daily usage limits. pic.twitter.com/5v3BYscXWB
Free users will have a smaller 32,000-token context window, which equates to about 50 pages of text, affecting daily usage limits. Currently, this feature is only available to Gemini advanced users, but free users will soon benefit as well.
ICYMI: Gemini Live now has search access 👀

Search capability wasn’t available initially at a time of the rollout and has been enabled silently.

Another significant update is that Gemini Live has gained access to search capabilities. Previously, this feature wasn’t available when Gemini Live launched. With internet access, Gemini Live can now provide more up-to-date and relevant information, making it far more useful than before.
