As longstanding partners to India’s #digital transformation, we have brought the best of our global capabilities - from our hardware to the latest #AI and platform experiences - to enable the country to embrace her potential as a leader in the global digital economy. Last week, we marked significant steps in this commitment, by launching Google Wallet and Pixel 8a in #India. Designed with local insights to deliver a seamless and secure way to carry your digital essentials – cards, passes, tickets, and more - #GoogleWallet aims to uplevel convenience and help Indians do even more with #Android in their embrace of digital. Partnerships are core to this experience, with several of India's top brands creating digital journeys tailored for Google Wallet. Google Wallet perfectly complements Google Pay, which remains India’s much-loved one-stop payment destination. In parallel, with #Pixel8a, we’re combining the best of our #AI capabilities with our cutting-edge Google Tensor G3 chip to provide Indians the most affordable and robust Pixel experience yet. These offerings foreshadow the wave of exciting AI-led global innovations we will unveil at #GoogleIO later today, using #technology to truly transform how people find information and get things done. With our breakthroughs, we will continue to support the country’s journey towards driving momentum for digital transformation that is both local and global.

My big takeaway from OpenAI's admittedly impressive demo of GPT-4o's ability for fluent conversation and video stream input is that it was last-minute scheduled a day before Google IO where Google is likely to present a very similar capability for Gemini (see below). In November Google pinched in a Gemini announcement a day before OpenAI's dev day and on Feb 6 '23 they squeezed in a last minute Bard announcement, a day before Microsoft summoned journalists to their campus for their highly anticipated AI update. So is this thunder stealing payback by OpenAI? Likely yes. The worrying thing here is what this tells you about the mindset and focus of these companies. This is a cut throat game for attention, market share and perceived leadership. Prioritizing research and practical implementations of safety measures on the way to AGI? Not so much. We are seeing a race for the flashiest AI pioneer. Who has really pushed the needle on safety research and is notably missing from this public race? Anthropic. I hope they are not too hesitant on their business development and are getting rewarded for their commendable posture on safety by getting business from enterprises who emphasize responsible deployment.

Imagine a world without Google... 🌍✨ Where would we turn for answers, information, and inspiration? 🤔🔍 As we navigate the vast seas of the internet, let's take a moment to appreciate the incredible impact that Google has had on our lives. From connecting us to people and places, to empowering us with knowledge at our fingertips, Google has truly transformed the way we navigate the digital landscape. So, let's raise a virtual glass to all the discoveries we've made thanks to this technological titan! 💻 #DigitalJourney #EmbracingInnovation
