Google details how it’s using AI and machine learning to improve search
During a livestreamed event this afternoon, Google detailed the ways it’s applying AI and machine learning to improve the Google Search experience. Google says users will soon be able to see how busy places are in Google Maps without searching for specific beaches, grocery stores, pharmacies, or other locations, an expansion of Google’s existing busyness metrics. The company also says it’s adding COVID-19 safety information to businesses’ profiles across Search and Maps, revealing whether they’re using safety precautions like temperature checks, plexiglass shields, and more.
