The big thing missing from Google’s new line-up is a next-gen AI assistant
The dust has settled on Google I/O 2023, with sweeping announcements spanning physical products, including the Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold, to AI updates like PaLM2. However, looking back, a glaring absentee from the roll call was a vision tying these products altogether: a next-gen AI assistant to span Google’s mighty ecosystem.
Of course, with PaLM2 now powering Google Bard and growing integrations with Search, Gmail, and more, it would be wrong to accuse Mountain View of neglecting advancements in AI. Far from it. Google continues to work at pace to close the gap on ChatGPT, and it clearly has the more established product ecosystem into which it could (and probably should) quickly integrate advanced AI features. However, it’s still unclear what Google’s vision is for AI regarding its physical product portfolio, if it even has one at all.
