Google's Gemini is a family of foundational LLMs designed to run on a wide range of hardware, from data centers to mobile phones. Gemini Nano has been specifically optimized and scaled down to run on mobile silicon accelerators. It enables capabilities such as high-quality text summarization, contextual smart replies and advanced grammar correction. For example, the language understanding of Gemini Nano enables the Pixel 8 Pro to summarize content in the Recorder app. Running on-device removes many of the latency and privacy concerns associated with cloud-based systems and allows the features to work without network connection. Android AICore simplifies the integration of the model into Android apps, but only a few devices are supported at the time of writing.
