How to Edit and Regenerate Gemini AI Responses

Take control of your AI conversations with Gemini. This Cool Tip shows you how to fine-tune responses for precision and better results.

Google Gemini
Have you ever wished your AI assistant could give you a slightly different answer? 

Ever read an AI-generated email draft that was almost perfect, but needed a slightly more professional tone?

Maybe you wanted a longer response, a more casual tone, or something with a slightly different focus. 

Here's a Cool Tip.  Regenerate or modify Google Gemini responses.

Here's how to do it.
  • Navigate to https://gemini.google.com/ .
  • Enter an AI prompt and submit.
  • Highlight the specific text within the Gemini response that you want to change.
  • Click the modify icon.
  • Select from the options to "Regenerate" (rewrite that section), make the text "Shorter" or "Longer," or completely "Remove" it.
  • For even more control, type your own instructions in the "Modify with a prompt" field. For example, "Rewrite this more formally."
With this new improvement, get more precise answers, tailor the tone of responses, and iterate on ideas quickly.

Some prompts might be too complex for Gemini to understand and it also won't change responses generated by extensions or ones containing code.

Real-World Example

Imagine you ask Gemini, "Write a poem about Cool Tech Tips at www.OneCoolTip.com.

If you highlight a specific line and ask, "Make this more funny," Gemini regenerates that section.

Start with small edits first – it's easier to change one line at a time, then regenerate the whole response if needed.

Be specific with your regeneration prompts. 

Instead of 'make it better', try 'make this paragraph more persuasive'.

The ability to modify and regenerate Gemini responses gives you unprecedented control over your AI interactions.  

Now, you can achieve the output you want without starting from scratch each time. 

Experiment and see how this new feature sparks your creativity!

Enjoy!

Google Launches Gemini with Paid 'Ultra' Tier

Google Gemini
Is Google's AI assistant getting a makeover? 

Could Gemini revolutionize Google's AI?

Would you pay to access cutting-edge AI power for a monthly fee? 

Here's a Cool Tip.  Check out the newly renamed Google Gemini.

Google has rebranded its AI service Bard to Gemini and launched an all-new Gemini Advanced service.

This change aligns with the name of the powerful Large Language Model (LLM) underlying the tech, Gemini Ultra. 

Enhanced responses, creative text generation, and advanced problem-solving abilities are expected benefits.
  • Gemini Pro: The standard Gemini model provides enhanced responses and the capability to understand various nuances.
  • Gemini Ultra: This is the most advanced Gemini model. Its strengths include highly complex problem-solving, creative generation, and deeper data analysis abilities. Gemini Ultra forms the basis of Gemini Advanced.
  • Gemini Advanced: A subscription-based service built on top of Gemini Ultra. It includes exclusive features, expanded multimodal capabilities, and will continue to see updates with newer and more powerful AI models.
This paid service is similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Microsoft's Copilot AI services.

All are priced at roughly $20 per month.


Potential Benefits of Gemini Ultra
  • A student with complex homework questions.
  • A marketer seeking new ad copy ideas.
  • A musician wanting help with lyrics.
Possible Concerns
  • Will $19.99/month be worth it for most users? Free plans will likely still exist.
  • Ethical use and guarding against biased responses is key.
  • Disinformation spread due to Ultra's powerful language capabilities.
  • Over-reliance on AI and reduced critical thinking skills.

Google Gemini is available at: https://gemini.google.com/

Expect Gemini to roll out through various Google products and services in the coming months. 

For now, curious users can use free versions to evaluate the potential.

Paid-tier models could shape how we interact with technology. 

Try the free Gemini and let us know if YOU would pay to upgrade.
