Google has updated its Maps platform with new generative AI capabilities and significant improvements for Bard. The incorporation of Google’s most recent multimodal AI model, Gemini Pro, into Bard across all supported languages and geographies is one notable update.
After being restricted to the English language, Gemini Pro’s integration gives Bard access to more sophisticated features like summarization, coding, reasoning, and comprehension. With this expansion, Bard users around the world will have a more enriching and inclusive experience.
The most notable addition to this update is Bard’s newly discovered capacity to create photos; this service is now accessible in “most countries around the world” and is available in English. The fact that users can access this feature for free is what makes it unique. Google’s state-of-the-art Imagen 2 model powers the image production capability, balancing speed and quality to provide results that are both realistic and high-quality.
Giving a brief description is all that is required to use Bard’s image generating. After getting the input, Bard creates unique and varied images to represent the concept. Bard uses SynthID to create digitally recognizable watermarks in the created photos’ pixels to preserve transparency and identify the AI-generated nature of the photographs.
The feature that allows users to compare Bard’s answers with Google search results in more than 40 languages is a significant addition. Users can determine whether there is web content that supports Bard’s response by clicking on the G icon. By offering highlighted terms and the chance to investigate more information about supporting or contradicting material found through a Google search, this tool increases user engagement.
All things considered, these Bard upgrades demonstrate Google’s dedication to developing AI capabilities and offering consumers better features, such as increased cross-referencing with Google search results and free AI image production. The goal of these changes is to increase AI’s usability and accessibility for a wider audience.
