Google Gemini 3 Has Arrived!!👀🎉

NiKole "Technikole" Maxwell

Chief Innovation & Implementation Strategist

Gemini3 is #Google’s newest, most advanced AI model. #Gemini3 is a reasoning model, which changes how you should prompt. In short, it is smarter, faster, and much better at “seeing” and “hearing” the world than previous versions. 👏🏽By default, Gemini 3 is less verbose and prefers providing direct, efficient answers.

New Features:

👀💡”Shader Pilot” - build a complex customizable 3D world 👀

so I said: “Create a cartoon world in the style of Doc McStuffins at Christmas.” I got a cartoon 3D world that I can get up and walk around inside of (with a terraform viewer)… #metaverse

📃Research Visualization - transform a research paper into an interactive site

I took a research report and turned it to a snapshot of the #shutdown

Gemini 3 introduces granular control over multimodal vision processing via the media_resolution parameter. Higher resolutions improve the model’s ability to read fine text or identify small details, but increase token usage and latency. The media_resolution parameter determines the maximum number of tokens allocated per input image or video frame. Understand that this means the world for folks with limited ability read fine print — everyone over 40!

Upgrade alerts:

🚨 PDF & document understanding: Default OCR resolution for PDFs has changed. If you relied on specific behavior for dense document parsing, test the new media_resolution_high setting to ensure continued accuracy.

🚨 Token consumption: Migrating to Gemini 3 Pro defaults may increase token usage for PDFs but decrease token usage for video. If requests now exceed the context window due to higher default resolutions, we recommend explicitly reducing the media resolution.

🚨 Thinking: If you were previously using complex prompt engineering (like Chain-of-thought) to force Gemini 2.5 to reason, try Gemini 3 with thinking_level: “high” and simplified prompts.

🚨 Temperature settings: If your existing code explicitly sets temperature (especially to low values for deterministic outputs), we recommend removing this parameter and using the Gemini 3 default of 1.0 to avoid potential looping issues or performance degradation on complex tasks.

🚨 Image segmentation: Image segmentation capabilities (returning pixel-level masks for objects) are not supported in Gemini 3 Pro. For workloads requiring native image segmentation, we recommend continuing to utilize Gemini 2.5 Flash with thinking turned off or Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5.

There is more but I’m going back to testing the release!
