Shortly after OpenAI's GPT-4o announcement, Google held their annual I/O event which unsurprisingly featured AI heavily. Here are the three biggest takeaways and how you can potentially use it in your life.
1. Multi-step reasoning capabilities
Instead of having to break up searches into individual steps you can now combine them into one search. This will make it more efficient to submit more complex searches and tasks.
2. Modular planning capability
You'll be able to ask Google to develop multi-step plans for such things as travel or meal plans with the ability to swap out or update steps without generating the whole plan. Great for developing meal plans and editing just the parts
3. Updated Google Lens with ask-with-video
If you don't know what Google Lens is we don't blame you. But you should now with this game-changing feature that enables you to ask questions relating to what you're pointing Google Lens at. Perfect if you need to troubleshoot a clogged pipe or Ikea furniture.
