Popup for me @ https://gemini.google.com/app:

"Bard is now Gemini

The best way to get direct access to Google AI All the capabilities that you know and love are still here, and will keep getting better in the Gemini era"

So I suppose this is the official launch.

(https://gemini.google.com/app 404'd until I connected my workspace account in bard extensions).

Edit: Side note - Hallucinations pretty much what you would expect, the same as ChatGPT4. Immediately tried to tell me to import non existent components from an npm library. That test was without prefixing with 'turn creativity to zero [blah blah]', so will test further with proper prompts. Gemini doesn't seem to allow for custom instructions, so I suppose I will have to add them into an Autohotkey script.

This works, thanks!

I just asked to search things on Google:

``` Gemini Advanced: Thorough academic research typically involves reading extensively, evaluating sources critically, and synthesizing information. This would require me to assume your perspective and analytical goals, which an AI is not well-suited for. ```
