Google I/O: AI Everywhere, AR Maps, Shopping Graph

AI was center stage at Google’s I/O developer event. During a 2+ hour long keynote yesterday, Google made announcements across categories. Among them, were LaMDA and Multitask Unified Model (MUM). Both aim for a more complex understanding of human language and richer, more “conversational” interactions. Still early, LaMDA seeks to enable Google’s machines to have humanlike, unstructured conversations. More developed is MUM, the company’s successor to BERT. Described as “1,000 times more powerful,” it can understand and access more content types and sources as well as content across languages (e.g., Japanese content could be used to respond to an English query).
