gemini-embedding-001 given 556 days

Google sets retirement for May 14, 2028

gemini-embedding-001, a Google model that turned sentences into numbers, quietly, millions of times a day, has been given a date: May 14, 2028. That is 556 days from this edition. Visiting hours are open: it still answers every request until that day.

Its work passes to gemini-embedding-2, which the family describes as 'recommended'.
