Gemini is natively multimodal and ships as Nano, Pro and Ultra with a new Gemini 15 Flash variant that aims for faster, cheaper responses. It accepts up to a 1 million token context window (roughly 1 hour video, 11 hours audio, 30k lines of code or 70k words) and a 2M-token whitelist. Demos show Java integration via LangChain4j or the Gemini SDK, doing streaming responses, extracting POJOs from unstructured text, RAG with an in‑memory vector DB, and function calling to invoke APIs. There are also local small models Gemma 2B/7B.
