Three tiers: Ships as Ultra (frontier), Pro (balanced), and Nano (on-device), covering everything from data-center reasoning to mobile inference.
Native multimodality: Unlike "bolted-on" multimodal models, Gemini is trained multimodally from scratch, with joint tokenization across text, image, video, audio, and code.
MMLU milestone: Gemini Ultra reports the first MMLU score above human-expert performance (90.0%), using chain-of-thought with uncertainty-weighted majority voting.
Broad capability claims: Ultra sets SOTA on 30 of 32 benchmarks in the report, spanning multimodality, multilinguality, factuality, summarization, math/science, long-context, and reasoning.
