One of the big announcements that already dropped, covered by Brian, is that Google used May 4 (aka “May the Fourth Be With You” Day) to unveil a foldable Pixel phone. Here’s how it works: Users pick files from Google Drive, then Project Tailwind creates a private AI model with expertise in that information, along with a personalized interface designed to help sift through the notes and docs. The tool is available through Labs, Google’s refreshed hub for experimental products. The names sounds more like an undercover government assignment, but to Google, Project Tailwind is an AI-powered notebook tool it is building with the aim of taking a user’s free-form notes and automatically organizing and summarizing them. When it comes to the camera, it has a slightly higher pixel density, but Brian said, “I really miss the flexibility and zoom of the 7 Pro, but I was able to grab some nice shots around my neighborhood with the 7a’s cameras.” Its new chip does enable features like Face Unblur and Super Res Zoom. Like the Pixel 6a, it has the 6.1-inch screen versus the 6.4-inch Pixel 7. Google’s Pixel 7a goes on sale May 11 at $100 less than the Pixel 7 ($499). It can generate and edit images, as well as write captions for existing images. Kyle writes that Imagen was previewed via Google’s AI Test Kitchen app last November. Google also announced new AI models heading to Vertex AI, its fully managed AI service, including a text-to-image model called Imagen. Ron writes that “this A3 has been purpose-built to handle the considerable demands of these resource-hungry use cases,” noting that A3 is “armed with Nvidia’s H100 GPUs and combining that with a specialized data center to derive immense computational power with high throughput and low latency, all at what they suggest is a more reasonable price point than you would typically pay for such a package.” Imagen in Vertex There’s a new A3 supercomputer virtual machine in town. Codey is specifically trained to handle coding-related prompts and is also trained to handle queries related to Google Cloud in general. It’s part of a number of AI-centric coding tools being launched today and is also Google’s answer to GitHub’s Copilot, a chat tool used for asking questions about coding. We like the name of Google’s new code completion and code generation tool, Codey. Sidekickĭarrell has your look at a new tool unveiled today called Sidekick, writing that it is designed “to help provide better prompts, potentially usurping the one thing people are supposed to be able to do best in the whole generative AI loop.” The Sidekick panel will live in a side panel in Google Docs and is “constantly engaged in reading and processing your entire document as you write, providing contextual suggestions that refer specifically to what you’ve written.” Codey Think having an easier time finding Reddit links or YouTube videos, Sarah writes. For example, posts on discussion boards, Q&A sites and social media platforms, including those with video. There was also the introduction of a new “Perspectives” filter that we will soon see at the top of some Search results when the results “would benefit from others’ experiences,” according to Google. Context will be carried over from question to question.” When you tap on a suggested next step, Search takes you to a new conversational mode, where you can ask Google more about the topic you’re exploring. She described the experience like this: “users will see suggested next steps when conducting a search and display an AI-powered snapshot of key information to consider, with links to dig deeper. Sarah reports that this includes more information with an “About This Image” feature and new markup in the file itself that will allow images to be labeled as “AI-generated.” Both of these are extensions of work already going on, but is meant to provide more transparency on whether the “image is credible or AI-generated,” albeit not an end-all-be-all of addressing the larger problem of AI image misinformation.Īisha has more on Search, including that Google is experimenting with an AI-powered conversational mode. Google Search has two new features surrounding better understanding of content and the context of an image the user is viewing in the search results.
