+ ## How is this different from the other Google AI SDKs
223
+ This SDK (`@google/genai`) is Google Deepmind’s "vanilla" SDK for its generative AI offerings, and is where Google Deepmind adds new AI features.
224
+
225
+ Models hosted either on the [Vertex AI platform](https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/docs/learn/overview) or the [Gemini Developer platform](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs) are accessible through this SDK.
226
+
227
+ Other SDKs may be offering additional AI frameworks on top of this SDK, or may be targeting specific project environments (like Firebase).
228
+
229
+ The `@google/generative_language` and `@google-cloud/vertexai` SDKs are previous iterations of this SDK and are no longer receiving new Gemini 2.0+ features.
