What would you like to see?

I want to bring your attention to the latest update of Gemini. Gemini released its full support with "PDF Vision and Text understanding".

Let me quote from the reference, "The Gemini API and AI Studio now support PDF understanding through both text and vision. If your PDF includes graphs, images, or other non-text visual content, the model uses native multi-modal capabilities to process the PDF. You can try this out via Google AI Studio or in the Gemini API."

I am interpreting that OCR can be done through Gemini API or am I mistaken? Does it mean that AnythingLLM just got OCR through Google Vision by itself?

Please confirm whether if a user connects AnythingLLM with GeminiAPI and when the user prompts RAG of AnythingLLM then the API will perform OCR? If yes, then it indeed is great news.

If not, then can something be done easily to utilize this newly released capability of GeminiAPI?

We do not do this since via document upload, but you can upload the PDF as an image asset by dragging and dropping in chat and it would then be used in chat with Gemini via the same multi-modal method
