Transcripts
AI will pretty much touch everything we
do it's more likely to be correct and
grounded in reality talk to the AI about
how to do better it's a very deep
philosophical conversation it's bit
above my pay
grade awesome cind it is such a pleasure
to meet you it's likewise thank you for
doing it just like you I love AI I love
talking about AI so I think no surprise
today I'm definitely going to delve into
that with you and with so many AI tools
coming out these days and so much going
on I mean the shift of AI in the space
of a year has been insane and a lot of
people feel like if they don't start
using AI if they don't understand AI
they are going to be left in the dust so
why should people start using Google's
AI look I I I think for multiple reasons
to start with it makes your experience
better right I think using AI it's going
to summarize things for you it's going
to save you time now you can type a much
more complex question right find me
exercise Studios within 4 miles of where
I live and open at these hours and it
kind of summarizes an answer for you so
it just makes your life a bit easier
that's the primary way we putting AI in
our product yeah yeah AI is going to be
in our lives across everything we do
learn to understand where it's good at
what the pitfalls are so I think there a
part of getting familiar with the new
technology too so you want to do it for
both reasons amazing I'm I'm sure you're
aware of the competitors um co-pilot
chat BT what makes gemini or Google's AI
better than the competitors I think a
few things um the way we integrate with
Google search and other Google products
so for example it can summarize your
emails in Gmail you can easily send off
an email to Gmail so it's very well
integrated with the rest of your Google
products and so I think including
YouTube right yes yes so it's
multimodal so over time you'll be able
to use voice you can point it at things
I think that'll be an area where it's
differentiated as well at Google over
many years we built a vast understanding
of the world so you can go to any
chatboard and ask help me plan a trip
but they can hallucinate M okay but what
Google can do in Gemini is ground it in
the way we have built over years our
understanding of the world so when we
say go from Place A to B it's more
likely to be correct and grounded in
reality with
Gemini and even something like virtual
team it feels as though AI is almost
does almost have a Consciousness
sometimes do you think it'll be much
longer until there is some form of AI
Consciousness that we see like a real
form of it you know obviously
Consciousness is a deep topic and you
know it's something that is not yet
fully understood we all feel it we all
perceive it so I think there's a
difference between what it means to be
truly conscious AI versus can AI appear
conscious I think the second thing is I
think in the next few years he will
clearly have ai which will give you all
semblance of being conscious and you may
not be able to
differentiate but I think that's a very
different question from is it actually
conscious yeah yeah which is a more
profound question and it's a very deep
philosophical conversation you know like
true how do I know you are conscious
right like you know I mean how do I have
a way of knowing it and so I think you
know it's a bit above my pay grade I
think to to answer that question yeah I
think like you're right it's it's quite
an interesting topic that could go on
for days actually and so for the people
who do use these AI tools and who do
adopt them whether it's in work or just
their day-to-day life for those people
and the general public what do you think
AI is going to look like for them in the
next 5 to 10 years I think you're going
to have some AI which you can talk to or
ask to help and it's going to be
available for you right at your
fingertips if you're in Google Docs and
you're typing something it corrects your
spelling and grammar you take it for
granted but you know AI is going to be
there like that for pretty much
everything you do in your life you know
you may be getting ready for an
interview and you would just talk to the
AI about how to do better right and it
won't even seem strange to you to that
you're going to do that so that notion
you know it's what you know we showed
glimpses of it with project asra today
yeah right and the fact that there's an
AI it's it's based on a multimodal model
so it can see what you see yeah you can
talk you can ask it to reason about the
world and and remember it's just at the
early stages and these things are going
to progress pretty fast yeah so it
sounds to me like you're saying it's
almost going to be more magical and in
more people's hands so to speak yeah I
like that so for the people who let's
say don't adopt Ai and don't start using
it what do you think the future looks
like for them you know you want to try
these things uh use a chatbot whatever
you prefer right and learn interact with
them you know people can express
themselves in a variety of ways but I
think you will have a leg up if you can
understand the technology right I mean
it's it's an important change it's
happening at a faster Pace than previous
Technologies yeah so learning becoming
familiar with it learning how to use it
you know I think will give you a leg up
with the Gemini now coming out um I I've
seen you know when going on Pixel
devices you're prompt to now change from
Google Assistant to Gemini so is Google
Assistant fading away the right way to
think about it is over time you'll have
Gemini powering Google assistant right
they will they will become one on the
same thing as we go through this
transition Gemini can do everything
Google Assistant can do it's going to be
there right at your fingertips to help
you now that Gemini is on Pixel devices
um what do you think people are
primarily going to use it for like I'm
sure you've got user data already about
what people are using it for the most so
what do you think that's going to be you
that you predominantly see people doing
with it people ask it for ideas right I
think the most common way we see people
using it is they have they want somebody
to brainstorm with them right I found
myself using hey what should I do for
Mother's Day sometimes you're just
trying to understand something very
quickly uh I'm like hey Gemini is this
food gluten-free right and in a world
with project Astra that gets easier you
can ask Gemini to look at the food and
it can answer it for you I think people
are using it pretty broadly
across different types of needs uh and I
think people are getting more and more
familiar and comfortable with the
technology so yeah it feels like full of
possibilities yeah so more day-to-day
kind of things um like you say more
ideas I like that about you know kind of
Mother's Day or gift ideas or excursions
yeah but I think like you saw today you
know people may want to go to a place
and they say well what should I do for a
week and we're going to make it much
easier we're going to try and help you
plan that and those are the kind of new
features we bringing into Gemini
absolutely but there's a lot we can do
more my final question is what is your
hope for AI in the future like where do
you hope this ends up going in the end I
think the biggest way we hope is what
looks like a technology is just infused
in a way that makes our lives better we
can clearly see it in the context of an
assistant but the fact we using the same
AI to make your car self-driving in a
same way right or using AI to better
discover drugs that can Target difficult
diseases so you should view it you know
I've compared it in the past electricity
or fire you know so I call it more
profound than that you know it you want
to think about it in that deep
fundamental way and just like today you
don't think about electricity it's there
everywhere AI will pretty much touch
everything we do and you know and has a
lot of potential to make things better
there are obviously pitfalls which we
need to be careful about and make sure
we tackle them I wish I could I could
spend the whole day talking to you about
AI um I feel excited about the future
just because of what Google is doing and
Google's AI product So yeah thank you
for that all right thanks a appreciate
it take care
