This is the best summary I could come up with:
Google users can now make plans through a new Maps update that will generate events and activities by typing “things to do” into the search bar.
Activities like art exhibitions or lists providing inspiration for things to do will now populate, giving photo-first results to users, according to a Google news release Thursday.
Google Maps uses artificial intelligence to analyze billions of photos shared by the app’s community and focuses on specific activities.
Its Lens feature also incorporates AI with its “Search with Live View,” creating the option to select the icon and hold up your phone to scan the area for information about nearby landmarks.
After ChatGPT launched in November of last year, Google strove to catch up with the release of its chatbot Bard, alongside other AI endeavors across the company.
Google has not launched SGE to the general public yet, but CEO Sundar Pichai said in a Q3 earnings call earlier this week that using AI will create “new opportunities for content to be discovered.”
