Google’s Project Zero hackers and DeepMind boffins have collaborated to uncover a zero-day security vulnerability in real-world code for the first time using AI.

The new AI hub will support research into Arab language AI models and “Saudi-specific AI applications,” according to an announcement from the Saudi Public Investment fund and Google. Aramco, the state-owned petroleum company, says it currently uses AI throughout its operations. At one oil field, the technology has helped boost production by 15%.

Google LLC revealed today that it has uncovered a previously unknown vulnerability using artificial intelligence, a claimed world first that could mark the beginning of AI being used at the forefront of security vulnerability detection.

As Google continues to push the boundaries of AI, it's not just integrating the technology into its products and services – it's also using AI to build them. On its third-quarter earnings call Tuesday, CEO Sundar Pichai said that more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers.

A Google AI project is smart enough to uncover real-world software vulnerabilities on its own, according to the company’s researchers. Google’s AI program recently discovered a previously unknown and exploitable bug in SQLite,

Google Maps users can now ask Gemini for inspiration on what to do and Waze users will be able to report incidents verbally.

2023 was the year generative AI went mainstream, but 2024 was the year smartphone makers began incorporating the tech more heavily into their latest devices. Samsung's Galaxy S24 series, Google's Pixel 9 family and Apple's iPhone 16 lineup are all proof.

Google Maps is going to start helping you find new places to visit and answer questions about different locations thanks to Gemini.

These changes could help to make Google Screenshots (already one of the Pixel's best AI features) a much more useful app in a future update. As an aside, now would be a great time to grab a Pixel phone, especially with Black Friday on the horizon as many of the models are enjoying discounted pricing.

AI Teammate isn't a finalized product. We saw a prototype form of team-wide AI assistant integration in a Google Workspace environment. Not all is clear about AI Teammate, but here's what we know and expect.

Its launch two years ago kicked off a wave of generative AI chatbots and tools integrated into popular consumer products like Google Search. Ahead of the election, the companies behind the products had to decide what restrictions, if any, they would ...
