3. AI Enhancements for Google Products and Services
A bunch of other Google products are becoming more helpful thanks to AI. These include:
-
Google Shopping Graph for AI-powered shopping: This makes it easier to find the exact product you want at the best price.
-
Immersive View for Google Maps: Use AI to see your entire route before you take it. Google says this feature will be available in 15 cities worldwide by the end of the year.
-
Google Photos Magic Editor: Adds AI-powered image editing to let you do things like remove distracting objects in your pictures, move parts of your pictures around and even add things that were cut off by your shot.
If you want to try out any of these new features, visit Google Labs. Most of them have a waitlist or a sign-up option, although advanced access is largely restricted to residents of the United States.
