Number
of highlights have a not theory bent, designed to simply works such as
composing emails, creating bull lists, displaying city with street locations
and reducing the digital distractions that have increasingly gone people’s live
as a output of previous tech sector innovations.
One
of the major crowd-pleasers for the vast of software coders who gathered at the
filed conference was an augmented reality feature on Google Maps that suggest
people get talking destinations. Users be able to follow arrows - or likely a
cartoon-like creature - that display on a camera view displaying the real
street in front of them.
Here
some latest features for Android phones also target to upgrade people's digital
well-being, including a new "shush" mode that automatically turns on
the "Do Not Disturb" function if someone flips their phone face down
on a table. And "Wind down Mode" will fade the screen to greyscale at
a built bedtime to help users disconnect before bed.
The
company's digital doorkeeper, known only as the Google Assistant, is acquiring latest
voices - including one based on that of musician John Legend - later this year.
It will also motivate kids to be cleaver by thanking them when they say please,
match to a feature Amazon is bringing to its Alexa voice assistant.
The
assistant may also soon be talking with ordinary people at businesses for plans
such as restaurant bookings, although the specification is still in
development.
"Hi,
I'm calling to book a hair appointment for a client," said a
realistic-sounding automated voice in a demo from the conference stage. The AI
assistant deployed pauses and "ums" and "mmm-hmms" to sound
more human in conversation with correct people.
The
company said it will roll out the technology, called Google Duplex, as an
experiment in coming weeks. "We really want to work hard to get this
right," said Google CEO Sundar Pichai, who kicked off the conference,
known as Google I/O.
Some
other upgrades are more quickly. Gmail is getting an autocomplete feature that
uses machine learning to offer suggestions for finishing half-completed
sentences. For example, "I haven't seen you" might be autocompleted
to "I haven't seen you in a while and I hope you're doing well."
Users can accept the completion by hitting the tab key.
The
Google Photos app aims to get smarter about suggesting who you might want to
share photos with. Whenever it recognizes a photo of one of your Google
contacts, it can suggest sharing the photo with that person. It will also
convert photos to PDFs and automatically add color to black-and-white photos or
make part of a color photo black and white. The changes are coming in the next
two months.
The
search giant aims to make its assistant and other services so useful that
people can't live without them - or the search results that drive its
advertising business. But it also wants to run the social profits of AI and how
it's being used to boost health care, maintain the environment and create
scientific discoveries.
Pichai
didn't highlight to protect and data security covers that have put companies
like Facebook, Twitter and Google in the crosshairs of regulators. But he did
say the company "can't just be huge eyed about the innovations technology
creates."
"We
know the path ahead wants to be navigated carefully and deliberately," he
said. "Our core mission is to make detail, more useful, accessible and
beneficial to all of society."
Google's
latest version of its Android phone software, for now known as Android P, will
offer other smart features. It will teach the battery to adapt to how you use
apps in order to conserve energy.
But
not everyone will see the new Android features soon. Android P won't be
released until later this year, and even then, phone manufacturers and carriers
frequently limit Android updates to their newest phones. Owners of Google's own
Pixel phones will get the updates most quickly.
Samsung
is getting snubbed on some of these new features, at least for now. It has been
challenging Google more frequently by launching that services duplicate what
Google already offers on Android.
For
instance, Samsung users won't have access to an early "beta" version
of Android P. Samsung's camera app also won't get a developer advance lens
feature that lets Google offer information after taking a photo of a building
or sign. Samsung has been developing its own similar feature called Bixby
Vision.
It
wasn't immediately clear which company made the call to withhold the features
announced Tuesday.
