Key Insights
Advantage of Built-in Musical Knowledge
Gemini has 'inherent music composition knowledge' that allows it to produce harmonious compositions without dissonance compared to other AI models.
Hallucination Warning
Be cautious with image analysis; Gemini can experience 'hallucinations' where it provides incorrect answers about the presence of objects or people in a photo despite visual evidence.
Multimodal Strengths
Gemini is highly effective at processing various input formats simultaneously (text, image, video, and audio) to build complex applications in a short amount of time.
Prompts
Physics Simulation & Reflections
Target:
Gemini
Develop this simulation featuring reflectivity, roughness, and other material properties. Ensure the spheres are actually reflected within each other.
Extract Receipt Data to Spreadsheet
Target:
Gemini
Parse all these receipts and add them to a spreadsheet with these columns: date, item, total, and currency.
Build Earthquake Visualization from Video
Target:
Gemini
Create an interactive earthquake visualization of Japan based on this video. First, list or show a map of Japan like this...
Step by Step
Building Apps and Composing Music with Gemini
- Open the Gemini 1.5 Pro interface (or the specified version 3.1 Pro).
- Enter an initial prompt to build a music app interface (like a piano roll) or a physics simulation.
- If the first result has bugs or missing functionality, provide specific feedback. Example: 'The spheres don't reflect in each other'.
- Use the 'Upload' button to upload reference files such as simulation videos or receipt images for data analysis.
- Click the 'Run' button to generate the app code based on the instructions and reference files.
- Test every interactive element in the generated app (such as the reflectivity slider, roughness, or music play button) to ensure the code is fully functional.
- For data tasks, instruct Gemini to organize information into a specific format like a table with columns: date, item, total, and currency.
