Google\u2019s I\/O event is less than two days away, and a new CNBC report might have just revealed some of the major AI-focused updates to be announced at the show.<\/p>\n
One big component will be a new large language model (LLM), PaLM 2, which CNBC describes as a \u201cgeneral-use\u201d LLM that is Google\u2019s \u201cmost recent and advanced.\u201d The LLM has apparently performed \u201ca broad range of coding and math tests as well as creative writing tests and analysis,\u201d according to CNBC, so I wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see Google show off some of those capabilities onstage. (The first PaLM was announced in April 2022, months before the recent AI boom fueled by applications like ChatGPT.)<\/p>\n
CNBC reports that Google will also announce \u201cgenerative experiences\u201d for search and Bard, its AI-powered chatbot it launched as an experiment in March, including expanding Bard to Japanese and Korean languages. Right now, Bard is only available in the US and the UK.<\/p>\n
Google will also reveal more Workspace-focused AI tools, including \u201cdiscussing template generation in Sheets and image generation in its Slides and Meet products,\u201d CNBC says. The company announced AI features for Gmail and Docs in March but launched them first with \u201ctrusted testers,\u201d so we\u2019ll have to wait and see if these new features remain limited or will be available more widely.<\/p>\n
Google didn\u2019t immediately reply to a request for comment. But it\u2019s not too surprising that the company might make a big AI splash at Google I\/O. With the rise of OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Microsoft\u2019s own aggressive AI efforts, Google has recently put AI front and center with almost everything it does and even made massive organizational shifts intended to further push forward its AI work.<\/p>\n
But I\/O won\u2019t only be focused on AI. The company has already announced the Pixel Fold and promised to share more about it at the event. A now-removed Amazon listing revealed a slate of details about the Pixel Tablet, leading me to believe it\u2019ll be at the show. And we\u2019ve seen Pixel 7A leaks for weeks, including a hands-on all the way back in March.<\/p>\n
I\/O promises to be a jam-packed show, and the fun begins at 1PM ET on Wednesday, May 10th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
