Today, Google did a livestream from Paris, to announce a number of new AI features that will be integrated into its Search, Translate and Maps services.
The livestream came a few days after the Bard announcement, of the upcoming chatbot artificial intelligence that the company tests internally before its release to the public in the coming weeks.
Google Translate
Google introduced a new feature that will give more options to words that can have more than one meaning, such as the word "bass" which can mean sea bass or the well-known musical instrument.
This feature is now available for Translate in English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish and will be expanded to more languages in the coming months. If you have an Android phone with 6GB of RAM or more, you can also translate text contained in images.
Google Search
Μιλώντας για εικόνες, η Google θα προσθέσει μια νέα λειτουργία στην εφαρμογή Lens τους επόμενους μήνες που θα επιτρέπει στους κατόχους τηλεφώνων να κάνουν αναζήτηση στην οθόνη τους. Θα μπορούν να τραβούν εικόνες και βίντεο από ιστότοπους και εφαρμογές και το Lens θα τις χρησιμοποιεί για να μάθει περισσότερες πληροφορίες για το περιεχόμενο σε αυτές τις φωτογραφίες και τα βίντεο κλιπ. Η Google διέθεσε επίσης άλλη μια νέα δυνατότητα, που ονομάζεται multisearch. Θα επιτρέψει στους χρήστες να κάνουν αναζήτηση σε περιεχόμενο με κείμενο και picture at the same time.
Google Maps
Google also has the immersive feature on Maps in some locations, including London, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, and Tokyo. The feature will allow you to see these cities from above in XNUMXD photorealistic opinions. The company will use AI functions to show you points of interest on the road as you walk with it phone you.
Finally, Maps will offer more information to people with electric vehicles. Maps will add EV charging station locations that will appear based on your car's current charge level, the amount of traffic and your expected battery usage. The Maps search will also display locations for charging stations and show you which ones have faster charging speeds.
The upcoming Bard chatbot was also mentioned in the livestream, with Google noting that it does not intend to offer the service to the general public until it reaches "high security levels" in the company's internal testing.
