Today, we’re opening up access to Personal Intelligence for AI Mode in Search in the U.S. 🚀 This feature has totally changed how I use AI in Search. Here’s how it works: 1️⃣ Opt in to connect apps like Gmail and Google Photos. Search connects your info to give you responses that uniquely match your specific context and interests. 2️⃣ Start asking for things like ideas and recommendations, where this is particularly helpful. For example: I wanted new podcast ideas and Personal Intelligence in AI Mode gave me spot-on recs for AI and product building shows that are similar to some of my favorites (hey @lennysan!). It even found some unexpected options around dad life working in tech. 🎧

We’re bringing new capabilities powered by Gemini models to @googlemaps. With Ask Maps, get answers to complex questions about any place you want. For example it can help with complex requests like "Find me the best 3-hour family hikes in the Grand Tetons and a spot for a packed lunch”. Will try this next time I'm there:) Rolling out now in the US and India.

When we talk about AI solving problems that were once considered impossible, this is the kind of thing we mean... Today we're introducing Groundsource, a new Gemini-powered methodology that helps predict flash floods by turning public news reports into actionable data.

Happy to share new progress in AI for Maths @GoogleDeepMind . In extremal combinatorics, AlphaEvolve has helped establish new lower bounds for FIVE classical Ramsey numbers - a problem so challenging that even Erdős commented on its difficulty. Historically, computationally deriving these bounds required bespoke, human-designed search algorithms. For many of these bounds, the best previous results are at least a decade old. AlphaEvolve changes this by acting as a single meta-algorithm that automatically discovers the search procedures needed to find these new bounds. 📷

The 2016 AlphaGo match against one of the world's top Go players wasn’t just a win for a computer program—it was proof AI was capable of technical creativity. Ten years on, we can trace the lineage of today’s most radical breakthroughs back to those historic moves on the board.

Ten years ago, AlphaGo’s legendary match in Seoul heralded the start of the modern era in AI. Its famous ‘Move 37’ signaled to us that AI techniques were ready to tackle real-world problems in areas like science - and ideas inspired by these methods are critical to building AGI

Breast cancer affects one in every eight women in the UK, and early detection is crucial. ⚕️ Our latest research in @NatureCancer shows how AI can strengthen early detection efforts for breast cancer. In studies with @imperialcollege and the @NHSuk, our experimental research AI-based screening system identified 25% more “interval cancers” - cases typically missed by traditional screening - while reducing screening workloads by an estimated 40%. Key findings from the studies in thread🧵⤵️

Today’s unanimous passage of COPPA 2.0 in the Senate is a massive step forward for kids online safety. We were proud to offer our support last year, and we congratulate @SenMarkey and @SenBillCassidy who worked so hard to get this critical update passed.
Ed Markey@SenMarkey

BREAKING: COPPA 2.0 just passed the Senate by unanimous consent. This marks a tremendous victory in my decades long fight for children and teens’ online privacy. Now, the House must do the same.

Introducing Nano Banana 2, our best image model yet 🍌🍌 It uses Gemini’s understanding of the world and is powered by real-time information and images from web search. That means it can better reflect real-world conditions in high-fidelity. Check out "Window Seat," a demo using Nano Banana 2’s world understanding to generate more accurate views from any window in the world, pulling live local weather info with 2K/4K specs. The precision is mind blowing. Rolling out today as the new default in the @Geminiapp, Search (across 141 countries), and Flow + available in preview via @GoogleAIStudio and Vertex AI. Also available in Google @Antigravity.
