Google introduces Gemini Decision 1 to evaluate up to 1,000 decisions at once
· Aster editorial team
AI-generated imageGoogle introduced the Gemini Decisions API, powered by the new Gemini Decision 1 model, for closed questions such as yes-or-no choices, multiple choice, or rubric scoring. The company says the system can process up to 1,000 questions in a single pass across text, images, audio, video, and PDF files. Its output includes probabilities and confidence levels, so it does not replace human judgment in sensitive uses.
Why it matters
A specialized interface could lower the cost and latency of classifying large volumes, but each result still depends on calibration and the rules set by the user.
For the technical crowd
Google reports inputs of up to 256,000 tokens, end-to-end latency of 150 to 250 milliseconds, and a price of $0.10 per million input tokens with no billed output tokens.
