Hi Friends,
There are many ways to build AI apps today. But with the power of LLMs (Large Language Models) like ChatGPT and Gemini, things are becoming simpler and more effective.
In this blog, let’s look at Gemini API – one of the easiest ways to integrate AI into your apps.
What is Gemini API?
Google's Gemini API is a powerful tool to build AI features like summarization,image captioning and chatbots. In this blog , we will explain how to get started and show you a working code in Python.
Gemini API is Google’s Generative AI service, available via:
Google AI Studio (for quick testing)
Vertex AI (for enterprise use)
It allows you to interact with powerful models like Gemini 1.5 Pro.
What Can Gemini 1.5 Pro Do?
- Text-aware: Chat, summarization, Q&A
- Image-capable: Understand and generate images
- Code-capable: Generate and explain code
- Handles Long Context: Over 1 million tokens!
- Audio-aware: (Early support, limited)
Where Can I Use Gemini API?
You can integrate Gemini using:
- Python
- Node.js
- REST API
It helps in building apps like:
- Chatbots
- AI assistants
Auto-report generators
If you're building enterprise-level apps, go with Vertex AI for stability and scale.
Example: Python Code with Gemini
import google.generativeai as genai
genai.configure(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
model = genai.GenerativeModel('gemini-pro')
response = model.generate_content("Explain AI in simple words")
print(response.text)
