GENERATIVE AI CAPABILITIES FROM GOOGLE

Google brings the power of generative AI to developers and businesses through Google Cloud and MakerSuite, while introducing new AI-powered features in Google Workspace

"Google recently introduced the next wave of generative artificial intelligence (AI) innovation across core areas of its business. Developers and businesses can now try new APIs and products that make it easy, safe, and scalable to start building with Google’s best AI models through Google Cloud and a new prototyping environment called MakerSuite. In Google Workspace, the company is introducing new features that help users harness the power of generative AI to create, connect, and collaborate.

“Breakthroughs in generative AI are fundamentally changing how people interact with technology – and at Google, we’ve been responsibly developing large language models so we can safely bring them to our products,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud. “Our goal is to continue to be bold and responsible in our approach and partner with others to improve our AI models so they’re safe and helpful for everyone. We’re excited by the potential of generative AI and the opportunities it will unlock — from helping people express themselves creatively, to helping developers build brand new types of applications, to transforming how businesses and governments engage their customers and constituents.”

An approachable way to explore and prototype with generative AI applications 

For developers looking to build the next generation of applications with generative AI, Google is introducing the PaLM application programming interface (API), a new offering that makes it easy and safe to experiment with Google’s best large language models. Google is making an efficient model available, in terms of size and capabilities, and other sizes will be added soon.
