Can I use Gemini 1.5 Pro from Vertex AI

Gemini API Developer Competition

I am building a chatbot which uses Gemini 1.5 Pro and text-bison from Vertext AI Model Garden. Will this be considered a valid submission? or do I need to mandatorily use Gemini API from Google AI Studio?

There is no requirement to use the AI Studio Gemini API.
The important part is that Gemini is the focus.

(And this sounds like a great opportunity to migrate away from text-bison, since it is scheduled to be discontinued later this year.)

Sounds good. Thanks @afirstenberg for a quick response. Well my chatbot uses a combination of Gemini 1.5 Pro and text bison. Interestingly, text-bison has given better response for text summarization in comparison to using Gemini 1.5 Pro for both the tasks. However, noted on your advice of discontinuation. I will probably try to switch to a different model.
