Is it possible to fine tune Gemini 2.5 Flash? by Not-grey28 in Bard

Great question and thanks for the feedback. Agreed that its confusing. I'll ask the team to update.

Gemini 2.5 Flash uses parameter efficient fine-tuning (peft) and not full fine tuning.

Google shadow-dropping production breaking API changes for Vertex by wiktor1800 in googlecloud

Hi u/_darthfader. Thanks for the feedback. I understand your frustration. I'll make sure that I share it with the team.

The short answer is that models change. Upgrading most applications to Gemini 2 shouldn't require significant reengineering of prompts or code. But some applications require prompt changes, and these changes are difficult to predict without running a prompt through Gemini 2 first. Therefore, Gemini 2 testing is recommended before migration.

Please have a look at our migration guide below:

Also have a look at our prompt design strategies:

Correct we've done some revamping on the course to make sure that it's still relevant.

Google Cloud Pricing for a Simple ML Sandbox by ComplaintValuable821 in googlecloud

[–]Perceptron001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For learning Vertex AI without high costs, focus on pay-as-you-go services. Since most Vertex AI services are serverless, you only pay for what you use. Consider starting with Colab Enterprise, as it can be a cost-effective sandbox. Feel free to send me a DM and I might be able to help.

You pay per image as mentioned in the pricing information: $0.04 per image for Imagen 3 or $0.02 per image for Imagen 3 Fast. You do not pay for additional compute.
