- Google is rumored to launch a series of AI search tools in the coming weeks.
- It s unclear the functionalities these tools will offer, but the project is known as Magi.
- The company will also introduce GIFI, an AI image generator, and Tivoli Tutor, an AI learning system.
- In addition, Google is also working on Searchalong, which will bring AI to the Chrome browser.
According to a recent story from The New York Times, Google is apparently working on a project called Magi, which is anticipated to contain a new set of AI tools exclusively for search (via The Verge).
Although the business is not disclosing specifics, sources state that they will initially only be accessible to one million people in the US and are anticipated to provide a conversational experience similar to the Google Bard chatbot.
Google is forced to respond to comparable capabilities provided by the new Bing Chat and ChatGPT from OpenAI, despite its efforts to market Bardas as an alternative method of finding answers rather than a substitute for search.
Furthermore, as the new Chat experience includes numerous AI advancements over Bard, there have been claims that Samsung plans to replace Google as the default search engine for Bing on mobile devices. This agreement may cost Google an estimated $3 billion in revenue annually and allow Microsoft to deepen its alliance with Samsung.
Google appears to be under so much pressure from Bing that, in addition to the Magi project, the corporation intends to make some major modifications to its search engine. The search giant does not, however, have a specific timeline for when this search makeover would be available to customers, according to the New York Times story.
The Verge story claims that Google is also developing other AI-powered tools to compete with Bing’s offerings. These include the project GIFI, a language learning program called Tivoli Tutor, and a solution that uses AI to create graphics like the Bing Image Creator.
Last but not least, the business is developing Searchalong, an interface that will bring Google Bard to the Chrome browser and provide conversational responses like to Edge Copilot, the Bing integration for Microsoft Edge.
