Google Ensures Only Large RAM Cell Phones Can Run Gemini AI

Google Ensures Only Large RAM Cell Phones Can Run Gemini AI Google Gemini illustration.  Google is bringing the AI Gemini model to a number of Pixels in early 2024 and not all cellphones can run the AI ​​Gemini Nano model, including the Pixel 8. At that time, Google only mentioned that there were hardware limitations that meant Gemini Nano could not run on the Pixel 8. Only now has Google revealed that the limitation is in the RAM section.  "Pixel 8 Pro with 12GB RAM is the most suitable platform for running Gemini Nano," said Google VP of Devices and Services Software Seang Chau as quoted by Tech Spot.  Meanwhile, the Pixel 8 only has 8GB RAM, and Google doesn't want to degrade the user experience by forcing its AI model to run on devices with 8GB RAM. Google then changed its mind, and announced that the Gemini Nano would also be released for the Pixel 8, but with special conditions. That is, it can only be accessed via "developer options".
