During Google’s recent I/O event, the highly anticipated Pixel Fold took center stage. However, alongside this device, Google made a plethora of announcements regarding upcoming changes to Android and Search. Among these updates is the opening of access to Search Labs for testers, enabling users to experience the new Search Generative Experience integrated with artificial intelligence (AI). Read on to discover more about Google’s AI-powered Search.
Google now allows users to test the new Generative AI, but it’s important to note that access to Search Labs is not available to everyone. Google has specifically invited those who have signed up for the program to be part of this testing experience. If you’re interested in participating, you can join through the Google Labs program and will subsequently be placed on a waitlist.
The AI Search Experience was initially unveiled at the recent I/O event, along with the introduction of the Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold. According to Google, the new AI-powered Search will enhance the discovery of new topics, offer diverse perspectives, and save users time. With AI technology, searching will become effortless and require less effort compared to current methods. Google’s AI Search breaks down queries into smaller segments, providing tailored information and results. Users will have access to query backgrounds and recommendations while shopping online.
OpenAI, supported by Microsoft, is also actively working on providing users with a range of utility tools. In the near future, they will be launching visual and audio tools that enable easy creation. Apple is also venturing into the AI field, as evident in their upcoming Siri updates. However, generative AI specifically for search is relatively new, and its reception in the market remains to be seen.
Through testing generative AI for search, Google aims to identify and resolve any bugs, errors, or issues that may arise. The company plans to launch the new search experience to the public soon. Stay tuned for further updates. We would love to hear your thoughts on this development, so please share your comments below.
