What is Med Gemini?

Google has another Healthcare LLM upgrade.

Hello Everyone,

Welcome back.

We got to talk about Med Gemini.

So why is this important?

Advent of Med-Gemini

▪ Med-Gemini is Google’s new family of multimodal models for medicine unlocking new possibilities for health

▪ Med-Gemini, a family of Gemini based models for medicine, demonstrating a new SOTA on MedQA, multimodal and long-context abilities, among others

Google’s Med-Gemini Model Achieves 91.1% Accuracy in Medical Diagnostics

Alan Karthikesalingam MD PhD is a big part of this launch.

• More accurate, up-to-date answers to medical questions with advanced reasoning and intelligent use of web-search.

• Long-context abilities. Summaries or referral letters from long health records, analyses of dozens of long research PDFs & more.

• More accurate multimodal conversations about medical images🩻, surgical videos📽️, genomics🧬, ultra-long health records📚, ECGs🫀 & more with state-of-art performance across multiple benchmarks

I actually want Google, Microsoft and Amazon to do well in AI with healthcare, so this is not a rebuttal for sure. The benefits would be high if LLMs get better in healthcare settings.

Med-Gemini sets a 🆕 state-of-the-art of 91.1% in MedQA-USMLE + outperforms GPT-4 models by an average relative margin of 44.5% on 7 multimodal benchmarks including NEJM Image Challenges.
