In an interview with The Verge’s Nilay Patel, Alphabet and Google CEO Sundar Pichai discussed AI-powered search, a major topic at the founder’s recent Google I/O developer conference.
At the event, Google announced a slew of new AI tools and models: Ask Photos, AI Agents, Project Astra, Gemini 1.5 Pro and Gemini 1.5 Flash, Nano, and AI Teammate, to name a few.
The most visible announcement for regular people is probably the addition of AI Overviews to Google Search. You’ve probably noticed that when you search anything on Google, an “AI Overview” will pop up, showing you an overview of the answer to your question using AI. Google is answering the question for you, making clicking links to other websites less necessary. It’s changing how web traffic might be traveled — which has many people freaked out. Pichai, of course, said there’s no cause for concern.
