Google AI

Google DeepMind wants to change the perception that the public has about AI by offering alternative art and imagery that’s “more diverse and accessible.”

YouTube is exploring the impact of generative AI on music by partnering with the industry. Like Google’s AI Principles from 2018, YouTube now has music-related AI principles.

The Search Generative Experience (SGE) that Google is testing out with some users shows an interesting future for the world’s most popular search engine, but one that also wasn’t really showing its source links very clearly at first. Now, though, Google seems to be testing more prominent links in SGE.

The biggest update to Google’s Search Generative Experience (SGE) since its launch will let the AI appear outside Search results and be accessible when you’re just browsing the web.

At a high level, Google says “generative AI does not change [its] foundational privacy protections for giving users choice and control over their data.” Google, in a blog post, detailed its “privacy commitments to all Workspace users” and commercial (enterprise) customers around Duet AI.

Recent updates to Gboard have focused on tablet and foldables optimizations, while everyone benefited from the toolbar redesign. Gboard 13.3 reveals work on new features like a stylus handwriting mode, compact voice typing UI, and generative AI stickers. This version is still in beta and none of the functionality we spotted is yet live.

Google has taken the wraps off of “Project IDX,” which will provide everything you need for development – including Android and iOS emulators – enhance it with AI, and deliver it to your web browser.

Google’s AI suite took on a massive expansion with I/O 2023 when the company announced Duet AI and the AI tools within. Gmail’s “Help me write” feature utilizes AI to compose well-written emails to send to whomever you’d need to. Here’s how to use it.

Google Lab Sessions are collaborations between “visionaries from all realms of human endeavor” and the company’s latest AI technology. Today, Google released TextFX as an “experiment to demonstrate how generative language technologies can empower the creativity and workflows of artists and creators” with Lupe Fiasco.

Google announced internally today that it’s updating Google Assistant with the latest LLM (large language model) technology.

One of the most straightforward features of generative AI tools is the ability to take long pieces of text and summarize them into a few short bullet points. Soon, you’ll be able to use Google Assistant to summarize almost any webpage.

After starting public testing in Slides, AI image generation is now coming to Google Meet on the web to create custom backgrounds.

The next step for Google’s Bard AI will see it directly integrate with some of the company’s own services along with a collection of third-party options, and we have your first look.

Google is giving Bard its “biggest expansion to date” by coming to Europe and Brazil, as well as supporting additional languages. The AI chatbot is also getting new productivity and personalization features.

Previewed at I/O 2023 in May, Google today is rolling out its “AI-first notebook” with a new name: NotebookLM. It was previously called “Project Tailwind,” though the old icon remains in use.

At the start of last month, Google Workspace announced that it would start public testing of Duet AI image generation in Slides, and it’s now more widely available.

Since Google I/O 2023, the push for AI in Google’s many different applications has been huge. One result of that finds itself in Google Messages, where you can let AI write a text for you. Here’s how.

The launch of the Pixel Tablet and Fold also brings a Material You redesign of Google Weather. This revamp, which will later come to other devices, features “Google Nowcast” for more accurate rain, hail, and snow predictions.
