Google Remakes Itself In AI

Google is rolling out AI features across its entire business that could transform how customers interact with its tools.
The Big Picture: Google has been working on AI for years, but suddenly found itself facing new competition as startups like OpenAI and Anthropic seemed to emerge out of nowhere. The company knows it has the capital and customer base to lead the industry, so it’s flooding the zone with new tools to box out competitors.
Behind The Code: At its annual I/O developer conference, Google CEO Sundar Pichai wanted to have a half-dozen “iPhone moments.”
AI Models: The new “Gemini Omni” system is a “family” of text, photo, video, image, and audio models that can allegedly “create anything from any input.”
Gmail: Users will be able to manage and search their inboxes by chatting with a chatbot called “Gmail Live.”
Search: Google is rolling out an “intelligent search box” that turns Search into a more interactive experience. Plus, new “information agents” can search on your behalf and build apps around the information you’re looking for.
Android: Google showed off a new feature called “Android Halo” that lets users see which tasks AI agents are running on their devices.
YouTube: Google is introducing a “Remix” feature that allows users to insert deepfakes of themselves into other people’s videos. In related news, it’s also expanding its deepfake detector to all users.
Final Generation: Google’s new tools are sure to skyrocket AI usage across the board, which may explain why the company is reportedly in talks with SpaceX to put data centers in orbit. In fact, Google already processes a mind-boggling amount of AI tokens. Pichai told I/O attendees that the company is currently processing 3.2 quadrillion tokens per month. A quadrillion is a 1 followed by 15 zeroes.
We’re not exactly sure what that many tokens adds up to in practice, but it’s safe to say it’s a lot.
The Future: Considering that nearly everyone already uses Google, the company could lead mass AI adoption simply because it offers the least friction for most users to give it a try.
