PRABHAKAR RAGHAVAN: Everything we do at Google
is to improve the lives of as many people as possible.
If you close your eyes and think of Google,
I'd imagine a lot of you would see this.
But the way people seek information
isn't confined to a text box.
They're going far beyond the search box
to create search experiences that work more like our minds,
that are as multidimensional as people are.
As we enter this new era of search,
you'll be able to find exactly what you're
looking for by combining images, sounds, text, and speech.
You'll be able to ask questions with fewer words, or even none
at all.
And we'll still understand exactly what you mean.
And you can explore information in a way that makes sense
to you, whether that's going deeper on the topic
as it unfolds, or discovering new points of view that
expand your perspective.
We call this, making search more natural and intuitive.
The age of visual search is here.
Your camera is the next keyboard.
With Multisearch, you can take a picture
and add text to it just as you might naturally
point at something and ask a question about it.
This opens up entirely new ways to search.
SAM REESE: I can find really hard to describe
stuff, stuff that kind of looks like my breakfast.
I snap a photo with Lens and then add
the word, purse, to that search, and voila, a delicious new
accessory.
[APPLAUSE]
PRABHAKAR RAGHAVAN: I didn't even
know bagel purses were a thing.
One of the most powerful aspects of visual exploration
is its ability to break down language barriers.
With major advancements in machine learning,
we've gone beyond translating text to translating pictures.
We are now able to blend translated text
into complex images so it looks much more natural
and feels seamless.
Let me hand it over to Dounia to show you a live demo.
DOUNIA BERRADA: Let's take a look
at an image captured with the James Webb Telescope by NASA.
I tap the Lens icon in the search bar.
I already have this image on my phone.
And when I select it, you will see
how much better it will look.
So cool.
You might say it's out of this world.
YVONNE CHOU: The way people explore
information isn't linear.
We take these seemingly unpredictable paths
where one question might lead to another.
NICK BELL: We're introducing new search experiences
that better reflect how people naturally explore information.
YVONNE CHOU: Say you're looking for a destination in Mexico.
We'll help you specify your questions.
For example, best cities in Mexico for families.
NICK BELL: With our deep understanding
of how people search, we can show you
topics to help you go deeper or find
a new direction on a subject.
Just tap on topics that spark your interest.
YVONNE CHOU: And you can add or remove topics
when you want to zoom in and out.
NICK BELL: The magical thing, is they
can help you discover things that you may not even
have thought about.
CHRIS PHILLIPS: 17 years ago, Google Maps completely
redefined what a map can be.
We're proud to connect more than one billion people every month
to the most comprehensive information
about the world around them.
Now, we're once again reimagining what a map can be
and how you can engage with it.
This means evolving our 2D map into a rich, multi-dimensional
view of the real world.
Say you're in Paris and you want to find fun and unique things
to do.
You'll be able to open Google Maps,
zoom in on a neighborhood, see what's popular,
and quickly get the vibe of an area,
so you can find what fits your mood.
We're making maps more immersive and interactive.
Using computer vision and predictive tools,
Immersive View takes all the useful information
you can find in Google Maps and brings it
to life in an immediate and highly visual way,
helping you experience what a place will
be like today, tomorrow, or even later in the week.
Being able to search and navigate quickly
is especially critical when you're on the go.
Now we're bringing visual search capabilities to Live View.
You'll be able to find nearby places in a faster, more
natural way right in Google Maps.
You'll be able to lift up your phone,
tap on the camera in the maps search bar,
and instantly see what's around you appearing
overlaid on the real world.
You can also check the business hours,
how busy a place is, and helpful details all at once.
SOPHIA LIN: From first search to first bite,
Google is making it easier to find the food
and places you love.
We're completely reorganizing Google's food information
to bring you exact dish results when
that's what you're looking for.
You can browse multiple menu items or tap on a specific dish
to see detailed information, like
which restaurant it's from, price, ingredients,
and whether it meets your dietary preferences,
like vegetarian or vegan.
LILIAN RINCON: Shopping is about so much more than just buying.
It's about browsing, exploring new products and brands,
finding the best deal.
Starting today, when you search with the word shop followed
by whatever you're looking for, you'll
see a shoppable display of products
from the widest array of retailers and brands.
So say I search, shop women's bomber jacket.
I'll instantly see a stream of bomber jackets
just like window shopping online.
Plus, I'll see brand new features
to help put the fun back into shopping.
Our new Shop the look feature will
show suggestions for how to pair my new jacket with other pieces
for the perfect look.
We're making it easier than ever for merchants
to create and show off their products in 3D.
With our innovations and machine learning,
we can automate 360 degree spins of merchant products using
not hundreds, but just a handful of still photos.
RUBÉN LOZANO-AGUILERA: Climate change is a defining challenge
of our generation.
It requires all of us to take actions large and small.
HEMA BUDARAJU: On Google Maps, we've got you covered.
RUBÉN LOZANO-AGUILERA: After launching eco-friendly routing
first in the US and then in Canada--
HEMA BUDARAJU: --Drivers will soon
be able to get customized routes based on their engine type.
RUBÉN LOZANO-AGUILERA: For example,
a diesel engine runs more efficiently at high speeds,
while a hybrid or electric is more efficient at lower speeds.
If you're in the market for a new car,
you'll likely be wanting to lower your fuel costs.
HEMA BUDARAJU: Starting today, we'll
show the annual fuel cost for cars in search results,
so you can see what makes sense for you.
We'll also show emissions estimates,
so you know how this model compares to similar ones.
Together, these small changes can add up to a big impact.
RUBÉN LOZANO-AGUILERA: And the future of our planet
and everyone on it--
HEMA BUDARAJU: --deserves nothing less.
PRABHAKAR RAGHAVAN: All of our products,
including the ones you heard about today,
are secure by default, private by design,
and put you in control of your personal information.
Now we're giving you even more control
over your online presence.
Starting today, we're rolling out
the new Results about you tool.
With this tool, right from the Google app,
you can easily request the removal of search results
that contain your phone number, home address or email address.
That way, you can have peace of mind
that we're helping your personal information
stay just that, personal.
At Google, we dream big and pursue
the seemingly impossible.
It's that spirit that drives us to deliver first of their kind
innovations at scale, like Live View and Google Maps
and Multisearch, and create experiences that are far more
natural and intuitive, that help technology get out of your way
and free you up to discover and explore the world around you.
We hope you're excited to search outside the box.
And we look forward to continuing to build
the future of search with you.
The best of search is yet to come.
