Google is updating AI Overviews, but it surely nonetheless does not know what yr it’s

Google’s AI Overview function does not have the best reputation, and it appears the corporate is desperately making an attempt to enhance it.

In a current blog post, Google introduced it’s launching Gemini 2.0 for AI Overviews within the US to assist reply “more durable questions,” like these involving math or coding. Google claims that with Gemini 2.0, AI Overviews will “present sooner and better high quality responses.”

Google / Pocket-lint

“Is it 2025?” could be one of many best questions on planet earth to reply accurately, however it seems that it could be an excessive amount of for Google’s AI Overview. If you happen to Google the query, the AI Overview’s reply on the prime of the web page is: “No, it’s not at the moment the yr 2025. The present yr is 2024. 2025 is the yr that may come after 2024.”

I Googled this myself, as did different Pocket-lint workers members and some of my associates, and all of us acquired the identical consequence, so it does not look like an remoted incidence. If this is not proof that AI Overview nonetheless wants plenty of work, I don’t know what’s. Hopefully, with the rollout of Gemini 2.0, AI Overviews will see an enormous enchancment, however that has but to be seen. Google claims that over a billion folks have used AI Overviews, and the function is arguably useful in some instances, but it surely’s all the time finest to double-check its work.

Google additionally just lately revealed a brand new AI Mode, a brand new search mode solely out there in Google Labs for Google One AI Premium subscribers in the meanwhile. AI Mode helps you to ask much more difficult questions in Google search and makes use of superior reasoning, pondering, and multimodal capabilities to supply detailed solutions, with the choice to ask follow-up questions. To me, it looks like Google is integrating its Gemini chatbot proper into Google search now with AI Mode. This function is experimental, and it is unclear when it is going to get a wider launch.

Whereas Gemini’s skills are seemingly leagues forward of Apple Intelligence and considerably on-par with ChatGPT, Google nonetheless has plenty of work reduce out for it forward. Hopefully, AI Overview will know its 2025 quickly.
