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

 

Interesting: The Three Pillars of Independence of an Organization

The 3 Pillars of Independence most commonly refers to a framework from the UK voluntary sector (specifically promoted by organizations like Bond and the Directory of Social Change). It is a toolkit for assessing and maintaining the independence of charities, NGOs, or civil society organizations.

The Three Pillars are:

  1. Independent of Party Politics – The organization (or regulator) must remain free from bias or influence by any political party or the government of the day. Decisions should be impartial, not favoring one political side.
  2. Independent of Populism – It should not be swayed by popular public opinion, media-driven campaigns, or transient public pressure, especially on controversial or unpopular causes.
  3. Independent of the Press – Freedom from media influence or pressure, ensuring decisions are based on evidence and law rather than headlines or public narratives.

This toolkit was created to monitor potential political encroachment on charitable regulation and to ensure charities can operate without undue external interference.
