In a small media Q&A session after the opening day keynote, Brin shared his views on ProjectAstra, Gemini Pro 1.5 and the artificial intelligence application scenarios he values most.
Project Astra is one of the most ambitious artificial intelligence projects demonstrated by Google. Its goal is to achieve "intelligent systems that can demonstrate reasoning, planning, and memory capabilities."
When asked how Project Astra and its potential form of wearable devices compare to Google Glass from a decade ago, Brin said: "It's interesting because it's almost perfect hardware." He added, "Now Look, it could be the killer app ten years from now. I just wish I could have foreseen this more accurately."
While the rise and fall of Google Glass is a well-known story, in recent years, advances in artificial intelligence and the search for the best hardware have seen a renaissance in the vision of the product — whether in the form of glasses, lapel badges, or something else. . Brin favored a hands-free, wearable device rather than a cell phone.
Beyond hardware, what Brin is really excited about is artificial intelligence technology - which is the main reason why he returned to Google after retiring in 2019. It is reported that since returning to the company in 2023, Brin has played an important role in the development of Google's artificial intelligence products such as Gemini, which is becoming a common model basis for various Google devices and services.
At this year's I/O conference, Google showed off the upgraded Gemini Pro 1.5 model, which can handle up to 2 million Tokens (compared to 1 million before), thereby supporting longer conversations and handling larger sizes. document. Brin thinks the versatility of this AI model is most impressive, and from extracting summaries of multiple Gmail messages to programming, these are his favorite AI application scenarios.
Brin said: "As a computer scientist, I want to be involved in artificial intelligence. I think now is the best time to be a computer scientist."
