Key Concepts
Gemini - generating high-fidelity and diverse images using generative models with multi-modal input, output
Right now, developers have free access to Gemini Pro and Gemini Pro Vision through Google AI Studio, with up to 60 requests per minute, making it suitable for most app development needs. Vertex AI developers can try the same models, with the same rate limits, at no cost until general availability early next year, after which there will be a charge per 1,000 characters or per image across Google AI Studio and Vertex AI.

provides 90 times more monthly code completions than GitHub Copilot’s free tier.
“Now anyone can more conveniently learn, create code snippets, debug, and modify their existing applications — all without needing to toggle between different windows for help or to copy and paste information from disconnected sources,” said Ryan J. Salva, Google’s senior director of product management. “While other popular free coding assistants have restrictive usage limits, with usually only 2,000 code completions per month, we wanted to offer something more generous.”
That feels particularly targeted atGitHub Copilot,the most direct competitor to Gemini Code Assist, which also provides afree user tier that’s limited to 2,000 code completionsand 50 Copilot Chat messages each month. Google is offering up to 180,000 code completions per month by contrast, which it describes as “a ceiling so high that even today’s most dedicated professional developers would be hard-pressed to exceed it.”
Likethe enterprise version, Gemini Code Assist for individuals is powered byGoogle’s Gemini 2.0 artificial intelligence modeland can generate entire code blocks, complete code as you write, and provide general coding assistance via a chatbot interface. The free coding tool can be installed in Visual Studio Code, GitHub, and JetBrains developer environments and supports all programming languages in the public domain.

With the new, free version of Gemini Code Assist in Visual Studio Code and JetBrains IDEs, individual developers now have the same code completion, generation and chat capabilities that we’ve offered businesses for over a year, and that are already available for free in Firebase and Android Studio. Now anyone can more conveniently learn, create code snippets, debug and modify their existing applications — all without needing to toggle between different windows for help or to copy and paste information from disconnected sources.
get code with a prompt like, “Build me a simple HTML form with fields for name, email, and message, and then add a ‘submit’ button.”
Or someone just looking to automate more routine tasks can ask Gemini to “Write a script that sends a daily email with the latest weather forecast,” or “Explain what this Python code snippet does and find any errors.”
With Gemini Code Assist for GitHub, developers get a powerful helping hand that can detect stylistic issues and bugs and automatically suggest code changes and fixes. Offloading basic reviews to an AI agent can help make code repositories more maintainable and improve quality, allowing developers to focus on more complex tasks. It’s available directly in GitHub, where most open-source developers post and review code, via a GitHub app.

Potential Value Opportunities
Potential Challenges
Google Gemini Bias and Algorithms limit value of Google Gen AI
The search giant said this week that it plans to relaunch its Gemini AI image generator after some users on social media showed how prompts for historical images of people generated inaccurate or unexpected results, in what critics called anti-White bias.
One viral post appeared to show a Gemini result for "a portrait of a Founding Father of America" that included a Black man and a Native American man. Other examples of image and text results prompted disapproval from prominent figures, including X owner Elon Musk, who has previously criticized the perceived liberal bias of AI tools.
The incident marks the latest misstep from Google as it scrambles for positioning in the blossoming market for AI products and plays catch up to Microsoft (MSFT) and its AI partner OpenAI. Shares of Alphabet, Google's parent company, fell almost 5% this week after the announcement that it hit pause on the tool.
