Ever dreamed of an assistant that you only needs you to point the camera at virtually anything around you? Google has made just that tool with Astra.
It seems AI assistants are antique, or that’s what Google wants you to believe, for we are in the era of AI agents — and Google I/O 2024 has quickly proven that. Say hello to Project Astra , a generative AI agent with vision, text, and speech capabilities, with a sprinkling of memory and spatial awareness capabilities in tow.
Recommended Videos Astra can make sense of code appearing on a screen, identify objects and explain what they do, identify buildings, and more. Think of it as Google Lens but for the entire world, and can make sense of most anything in front of the camera’s lens. An all-seeing AI agent? If Project Astra sounds familiar, that’s because OpenAI demoed a similar feature for ChatGPT — powered by the new GPT-4o model — just a day ago. OpenAI’s tool is currently under the red-teaming phase for safety testing and will be released in a phased manner, starting with ChatGPT Plus subscribers.
