- [Instructor] All right, I'm going to get started 2
in Google AI Studio, which is our playground environment 3
where you can test out any of the new Gemini models. 4
So we're going to try out Gemini 3 Pro preview. 5
And just to make this a little more interesting, 6
I'm going to upload a file with my prompt. 7
So I'm going to ask the model to summarize my sales data 8
and provide the info as a nice HTML 9
that I can download. 10
And we'll go ahead and kick this off. 11
So on the right side over here, this is the model selector, 12
and you can see that I have Gemini 3 Pro preview selected. 13
Gemini 3 Pro is the first model 14
in the Gemini in series. 15
If you're watching this at a later date, 16
it might just be Gemini 3 Pro, 17
or there might be other Gemini 3 models available. 18
But for right now, we have the Pro model in preview, 19
and you can see information about the model, 20
like the pricing for inputted output tokens. 21
And if you want to get even more information, 22
you can click over here where it says developer docs. 23
And this will take you to our Gemini 3 developer guide, 24
which is where we keep the latest 25
and greatest information about everything happening 26
with Gemini 3 in the API. 27
Okay, so we can see that the model completed our request. 28
So I'm going to go ahead and open up this new HTML, 29
and you can see that it has taken all my data 30
that I provided it and given me a nice little summary 31
of what's going on with my fruit stand. 32
Okay, so now that we've tested the model out, 33
this is a great environment just for getting a sense 34
for how the model works, 35
but you probably are going to want to actually write some code. 36
So that's what we're going to do next. 37
We're going to jump out of this UI interface 38
and we're going to get started building with the API, 39
and we'll be using the Python SDK for this. 40
But you can also check out Node 41
or Go if that's your preference. 42
So you will need an API key, 43
and to create one of those, 44
you can just click down here on the left. 45
And Gemini 3 Pro only comes with a paid tier. 46
So there is no free tier in the API. 47
You can use it for free in Google AI Studio. 48
But if you want to use it in the API, you will need a API key 49
that has billing set up. 50
So if you're on this page 51
and you see set up billing right here, that means 52
that your key does not have billing set up. 53
So you can click here and follow the steps. 54
But if you see tier one or tier two 55
or tier three , that means you do have an API key 56
that you can use.
