What is this lab about?
Gemini is a family of generative AI models developed by Google DeepMind that is designed for multimodal use cases. 💻❤️

Function calling lets developers create a description of a function in their code, then pass that description to a language model in a request. The response from the model includes the name of a function that matches the description and the arguments to call it with.

Function calling is similar to Vertex AI Extensions in that they both generate information about functions. The difference between them is that function calling returns JSON data with the name of a function and the arguments to use in your code, whereas Vertex AI Extensions returns the function and calls it for you.
