Google is set to share more about its work in artificial intelligence (AI). Next week, Google will host an event about how it is “using the power of AI to rethink how people search, explore, and interact with information, making it more natural and intuitive than ever to find what you need.” The 40-minute event will air on YouTube on February 8 at 8:30AM ET.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai just announced that the company plans to enable people to “interact directly” with the latest and most powerful language models for search. The news comes at a crucial time, as Microsoft is reportedly integrating ChatGPT into Bing, which will allow them to provide smarter summaries and results — something Google has struggled with in the past. With this move, Google is looking to stay ahead of the competition and maintain status as the go-to destination for finding information online.
While the invitation mentions existing services like Google Lens, Translate, Shopping, and Maps, there's a good chance the presentation will be about lesser-known tools. Even if it turns out to focus on small improvements to these well-known apps, their impact will have significant implications for the millions of people who use them every day!
It will certainly be interesting to see what the company has to say about artificial intelligence and search in a world where millions of people are looking for answers on OpenAI's chatbot instead of Googling it.
