Google’s Gemini Deep Research Is Now Available to Everyone by Igor Bonifacic

William Attardi on April 6, 2025

After being one of the first companies to roll out a Deep Research feature at the end of last year, Google is now making that same tool available to everyone. Starting today, Gemini users can try Deep Research for free in more than 45 languages — no Gemini Advanced subscription necessary. For the uninitiated, Deep Research allows you to ask Gemini to create comprehensive but easy-to-read reports on complex topics. Compared to say Google’s new AI Mode, Deep Research works slower than your typical chatbot, and that’s by design. Gemini will first create a research plan before it begins searching the web for information that may be relevant to your prompt. When Google first announced Deep Research, it was powered by the company’s powerful but expensive Gemini 1.5 Pro model. With today’s expansion, Google has upgraded Deep Research to run on its new Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental model.  Google’s Gemini Deep Research is now available to everyone

OpenAI to Soon Offer Deep Research To All ChatGPT Users for Free by Akshay Kumar

Earlier in February, OpenAI introduced Deep Research, its new agentic capability in ChatGPT. The feature allows you to use artificial intelligence to compile factual information into detailed reports on any topic. So far, the advanced functionality of one of the world’s most popular chatbots has only been exclusively available to Plus, Pro, and Enterprise subscribers. However, OpenAI is all set to offer the Deep Research AI agent to all ChatGPT users for free. Currently, you need to pay $20 per month for the ChatGPT Plus subscription to use the Deep Research functionality. You can avail yourself of extended access to the feature by paying $200/month for the ChatGPT Pro subscription.  ChatGPT’s Deep Research AI agent can do work for you independently. Once you give it a prompt, it will analyze and synthesize hundreds of sources online to make a detailed report at the level of a research analyst. You can think of it as your very own analyst who can go off on its own and report findings to you in a matter of minutes. It can also cross-verify the report against the millions of sites on the internet. OpenAI to soon offer Deep Research to all ChatGPT users for free

 

Remembering the Solemn Purpose of Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States observed on the last Monday in May to honor and mourn U.S. military personnel who died while serving in the armed forces. The holiday traces its roots to the years immediately following the American Civil War (1861–1865), which caused massive casualties—roughly 620,000 soldiers dead, about 2% of the U.S. population at the time. Communities across the North and South began spontaneously decorating the graves of fallen soldiers with flowers, wreaths, and flags, a practice that gave rise to the original name: Decoration Day. On May 5, 1868, Major General John A. Logan, commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR)—a powerful Union veterans’ organization—issued General Order No. 11. This proclaimed May 30, 1868, as a nationwide “Decoration Day” to honor those who died in the Civil War. After World War I, the holiday expanded to honor all American service members who died in any war, not just the Civil War.  In 1968, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act to create more three-day weekends for federal employees. This moved Memorial Day to the last Monday in May, effective in 1971, when it was also officially named “Memorial Day.” As one 1868 quote put it: “That Nation which respects and honors its dead, shall ever be respected and honored itself.”
