UBER

🚕Uber’s AI Chatbot

Uber is developing an AI-powered chatbot to enhance customer service, streamline marketing, and automate tasks in the Uber app.

Uber’s CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi, confirmed the ongoing work on the chatbot without providing specific details about how it will be integrated into current services.

Why It’s Important:

  • DoorDash and Instacart are also developing similar chatbot systems to speed up orders or answer food-related questions.

  • Artificial Intelligence can improve customer service by collecting data on customer complaints to identify problems and find solutions quickly.

🏆Google’s AI-powered Search Upgrade

Google’s AI-powered Search Generative Experience is implementing a new feature: images and videos.

If you enable the AI-based SGE feature in Search Labs, you’ll notice more multimedia in the colorful summary box. Google plans to enhance this summary box by adding more video and image content with links.

Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, described this transition as the future of search, saying, “Over time, this will just be how search works.”

Why It’s Important:

  • Google is no longer trying to provide a database of links based on your search. Instead, they’re attempting to synthesize relevant information with images or videos to streamline access to answers.

  • Is this new formatting an attempt to compete with AI chatbots?
