One of the more intriguing of Google’s announcements on Tuesday was more detail about an experimental AI feature for Fitbit users, briefly. Fitbit Labs will let owners draw correlations and “connect the dots” from health data tracked using their wearable devices. A chatbot in the mobile app will let you ask questions in natural language and create personalized charts to learn about your health.
The company hasn’t yet gone into great depth about the Fitbit chatbot, but an example it published Tuesday shows a user asking about potential connections between activity and sleep. The Fitbit assistant answered that the user’s days with higher activity scores correlated with better sleep . The Fitbit generative AI tool will arrive later this year. Google says it will only be available to Fitbit Premium subscribers with Android devices enrolled in the Fitbit Labs program.The company sees Google Lens as filling some healthcare gaps where text-based searches fall short. It says a feature that uses Lens to identify “visually similar matches from the web” for skin conditions is now available in over 150 countries.
In a similar light, Google has added new images and diagrams to its web results from reputable online sources to help you understand conditions like neck pain. Up next: The company sees the visual results powering its searches for more health conditions, including migraines, kidney stones and pneumonia. The visual search engine updates are expected to roll out over the next few months.
