Anthropic Model Comparison

Depending on who you talk to, you’ll either hear that AI is great and so helpful, or is horrible and doesn’t give good answers. Some of this may be due to prompting techniques or intended use cases, but it may also be due to the wrong model being used. Each of the major model providers has multiple models to choose from. In this episode, we’ll cover Google’s Gemini Models, giving you an overview of the major models, when to use each, pros and cons, and some additional Gemini tools.
