Introduction
Let's face it, managing daily emails can be a chore. But what if your AI assistant could sort through your inbox and only show you the important stuff? While Google Assistant on Pixel 7 Pro isn't quite there yet, Google is making strides in AI technology. The company has been showcasing new generative AI tools that can help you with tasks like composing emails, writing job descriptions, and even planning your meals. However, the real game-changer could be the Bard-style upgrade for Google Assistant.
Google's AI Journey
Google is not new to the AI game. Earlier this year, they unveiled a variety of generative AI tools at their I/O conference. These tools can assist you in various tasks, from drafting emails in Gmail to creating templates in Google Sheets. While some of these features are hit or miss, they do offer a glimpse into the future of AI in our daily lives.
Meet Bard
Google introduced Bard as a chatbot to compete with Bing. Although it had a rocky start, Bard has improved over time. With a recent update, Bard can now access your Gmail and Google Docs to assist you better. For example, it can sift through your emails and highlight the important ones, making your life a bit easier.
The Pixel 8 Pro: A Unified AI Experience
As we approach Google's fall hardware event, all eyes are on the upcoming Pixel 8. What's exciting is how Google plans to integrate its various AI technologies into this device. Unlike Apple, which shies away from openly discussing AI, or Microsoft, which is more focused on computers, Google aims to make the Pixel 8 a device that truly showcases the power of AI in simplifying our daily tasks.
Limitations and Future Prospects
While the idea of a fully functional Bard on your phone sounds exciting, there are challenges. One major hurdle is processing power. AI requires significant computational resources, and currently, much of this processing is done in the cloud. Google's custom Tensor chips aim to bring more of this processing on-device, but it's still a work in progress.
