A self-proclaimed artist, idiot, and maker has remade Google’s now discredited Gemini demo using technology from its most obvious AI rival, ChatGPT. Greg Technology published a short video wherein the eponymous tech tinkerer discussed a drawing of a duck, asked about some hand-signal emojis, and got OpenAI’s GPT-4V AI to identify a game that was being played. Greg’s video might lacks the polish of the Gemini AI demo, but it truly mixes voice and vision prompts in real-time throughout.

For some context to the video recording from Greg Technology, it is worth a look at Google’s Gemini AI launch video titled “Hands-on with Gemini.” On launch day, this was the flagship video, claimed to be the best way to understand “Gemini’s underlying amazing capabilities is to see them in action,” according to Google CEO Sundar Pichai.

It soon transpired that the impressively cute and slick Google Gemini AI video was staged. The main issue that caused disappointment among AI watchers was that the video presented wasn’t recorded in real-time – instead, Gemini responded to a series of still images. Additionally, all the voice interaction was dubbed in later as part of the video production process, whereas Gemini had actually responded to text prompts throughout the demo.
