Google I/O 2023 Event - Highlights 

Google announced more updates for its conversational AI chatbot Google Bard.

Bard + Coding: one of the most popular things people are doing with Bard, it can now collaborate on activities like coding and has already learned over 20 programming languages.

The approach to coding is very conversational, taking on a 1:1 mentoring and learning look similar to what one would experience on Stack Exchange. 

Bard utilizes colors to make the code more understandable by visually distinguishing the lines of code

Currently, developers are able to move code from Bard directly to Codelab and soon will be able to export directly to tools like Python

Bard + Exports: a series of export actions enable you to move Bard's responses directly into other platforms like Gmail and Google Docs/Sheets. Google described this as using Bard as a "jump-start" and exporting the responses to Google Suite products

Bard + Adobe Firefly: Users can prompt Bard to generate an image and it will create a synthetic image based on the given parameters. This feature also enables users to refine the generated images by art style.

Bard + Privacy: Google emphasized the security and privacy features of their AI models, making it a more favorable choice than ChatGPT for business and sensitive information use-cases

Bard + Search: Search results will become more visual in responses and prompts. In fact, Bard will use Google Search and the featured Knowledge Graph to pull relevant images to show to users

Bard + Accessibility: Bard is now open to over 180 countries and territories and is available in English, Japanese, and Korean. It is also on track to support 40 languages soon, though Google emphasized it is taking time to responsibly learn language nuances through cultural and local understanding

It goes beyond the existing suggestion feature, now comprehending sentiment and semantics through rigorously tested language processing models.

Google Photos: "Magic Editor" for Professional-Level Edits

Google Photos introduces the "magic editor," combining semantic understanding and generative AI. This feature takes photo editing to the next level, providing professional-quality edits within seconds. It can remove unwanted elements, and even regenerate missing components, producing stunning results.

PaLM 2 Models: AI for Diverse Devices

The PaLM 2 Models are available in various scales, making AI models accessible across devices, including mobile phones. Google demonstrated how advancements in PaLM benefit the security and healthcare sectors through the Sec-PaLM and Med-PaLM models, respectively.

Google Lens: Bard-powered Captions

Google Lens now utilizes Bard to generate captions based on photo prompts. It's advanced enough to understand the sentiment of a photo by analyzing expressions and depicted events.

Google Maps: Immersive Street View Previews

Google Maps enhances the street view experience, enabling users to preview their routes in an immersive view. This feature allows travelers to visualize their entire journey before setting off.

Google Slides: "Sidekick" for Enhanced Presentations

In addition to integrating Bard features into Google products, Google Slides introduces "sidekick." This new feature enables users to search natively and receive answers with cited sources. It can also generate speaker notes for each slide in seconds by analyzing the slide's content. This saves time and enhances storytelling skills.
