Introducing Willow, our new state-of-the-art quantum computing chip with a breakthrough that can reduce errors exponentially as we scale up using more qubits, cracking a 30-year challenge in the field. In benchmark tests, Willow solved a standard computation in <5 mins that would take a leading supercomputer over 10^25 years, far beyond the age of the universe(!).
We see Willow as an important step in our journey to build a useful quantum computer with practical applications in areas like drug discovery, fusion energy, battery design + more. Details here: blog.google/technology/res…

1/ Just finished my Q3 earnings remarks highlighting extraordinary momentum across the company and our differentiated full stack approach to AI innovation - robust infrastructure, research + models, and products + platforms. A few highlights: 🧵blog.google/inside-google/…
2/ Gemini API calls, token volume, consumer usage, business adoption - all growing dramatically. And all 7 of our products and platforms with 2B+ monthly users use Gemini models, including the newest 2B-user product, Google Maps.
3/ Recent AI advancements, including AI Overviews, Circle to Search, and new Lens features, are expanding what people can search for and how they search for it. This leads to people coming to Search more often, driving additional search queries.
Introducing Gemini 1.0, our most capable and general AI model yet. Built natively to be multimodal, it’s the first step in our Gemini-era of models. Gemini is optimized in three sizes - Ultra, Pro, and Nano
Gemini Ultra’s performance exceeds current state-of-the-art results on 30 of the 32 widely-used academic benchmarks. With a score of 90.0%, Gemini Ultra is the first model to outperform human experts on MMLU.
Now Gemini Pro is coming today in Bard’s biggest update yet (in English in 170 countries) with more advanced reasoning and understanding in the responses. Bard Advanced with Ultra, our most general and capable model for highly complex tasks, is coming early next year.
Gemini Nano is super efficient for tasks that are on-device. Android developers can sign up for an early access program for Gemini Nano via Android AICore and Pixel 8 Pro users can already see it rolling out in features like Summarize in Recorder and Smart Reply in Gboard + much more to come!
1/Today at #GoogleIO we shared the bold and responsible approach we're taking to use AI to reimagine our products, including Search with a new generative search experience coming first to Labs. You can sign up starting today. g.co/labs
2/ We also introduced our next generation model, PaLM 2. It's powering over 25 new products + features, has improved multilingual, reasoning and coding capabilities, and can be fine-tuned for specific uses, like health and security. blog.google/technology/ai/…
3/ Bard is now running on PaLM 2, and we continue to evolve it with coding upgrades, export options to @gmail@googledocs, Japanese + Korean language support (with more on the way), the ability to ask questions using images with Google Lens + more. blog.google/technology/ai/…
1/ In 2021, we shared next-gen language + conversation capabilities powered by our Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA). Coming soon: Bard, a new experimental conversational #GoogleAI service powered by LaMDA. blog.google/technology/ai/…
2/ Bard seeks to combine the breadth of the world's knowledge with the power, intelligence, and creativity of our large language models. It draws on information from the web to provide fresh, high-quality responses. Today we're opening Bard up to trusted external testers.
3/ We'll combine their feedback with our own internal testing to make sure Bard's responses meet our high bar for quality, safety, and groundedness and we will make it more widely available in coming weeks. It's early, we will launch, iterate and make it better.
1/ At #GoogleIO today we shared how we're advancing two core parts of our mission -- knowledge and computing -- to deliver products that are built to help. Here are a few things we announced: blog.google/technology/dev…
2/ In Google Search, we unveiled a new multisearch feature to help people find information about local businesses. And our "scene exploration" advancement uses your camera to pan a scene and show insights about multiple objects in a space. blog.google/products/searc…
3/ We're helping devices work better together on Android and beyond. The new Pixel portfolio -- Pixel 6a, Pixel Buds Pro, Google Pixel Watch and Pixel 7 -- brings together the best of our hardware, software & AI to create more helpful experiences. blog.google/products/pixel…
The future of work at Google is flexibility. The majority of our employees still want to be on campus some of the time yet many would also enjoy the flexibility of working from home a couple days a week…
...spending time in another city for part of the year, or even moving there permanently. Google’s future workplace will have room for all of these possibilities. We’re moving to a hybrid work week with most Googlers in the office approximately 3 days a week.
We’ll offer more location choices around where to work -- in one our many campuses -- as well as the option to be fully remote based on role and team needs. And we’ll offer flexible benefits like the option to work from anywhere for up to 4 weeks a year.
