Answer generation model versions and lifecycle

Agentspace Enterprise offers multiple model versions for you to choose when generating answers. You can choose the model versions when using search summaries and answers and follow-ups.

Available models

Agentspace Enterprise uses two types of models for question and answering use cases:

  • Vertex AI LLM models that have been tested on question and answering tasks
  • Agentspace Enterprise models that are based on Vertex AI LLM models and further trained to address question and answering tasks

Agentspace Enterprise models share the same discontinuation date as their base Vertex AI LLM models. The base LLM model is available for six months after the release date of the next version of the model, per the Vertex AI model lifecycle policy. Leave enough time to migrate to new models before the discontinuation dates.

The following table lists model version specifications. When you set a model specification, the API uses the specified model to generate answers.

Model version Description Context window Discontinuation date
stable

The default model choice if the model version is not set.

The stable model specification points to gemini-1.5-flash-001/answer_gen/v1.

The model designated as stable changes periodically as new models and versions become available.
