Tech & AI | July 2, 2024, 11:24 a.m.
Google is set to introduce new "Google AI" features in the next generation of Pixel phones, one of which resembles Microsoft's controversial Recall tool. The "Pixel Screenshots" feature will allow users to save and search through key details from screenshots manually taken, unlike Microsoft Recall which automatically captures user activity. This move aims to address privacy concerns and provide users with more control over their data. The AI processing can be toggled on or off, enabling users to summarize screenshots and extract information from them. Google also plans to implement similar AI features in Google Photos, improving search functionality. Additionally, a new photo editing feature called "Add Me" will allow users to add individuals to group photos using AI. These innovative features reflect Google's commitment to enhancing user experience through artificial intelligence technology.
