In our previous blog post, we navigated the announcements from Google Cloud Next ’23, spotlighting Google Cloud AI advancements in infrastructure and the Vertex AI Platform. Today, let’s journey further into the AI domain, examining how artificial intelligence is reshaping Google Workspace, Google Cloud Platform, and cybersecurity. Let’s delve deeper!
Duet AI: Powering Productivity and Collaboration in Workspace and Google Cloud
Duet AI, a dynamic GenAI collaborator introduced at Google I/O in May, is at the heart of Google’s AI revolution. Duet AI seamlessly integrates with a wide range of products and services, promising to enhance productivity, foster collaboration, and uphold the highest standards of security and privacy.
Workspace features have been significantly upgraded, including content creation in Gmail and Google Docs and image generation in Google Slides. As a result of integrating Duet AI with Google Meet, meeting notes and summaries are now available in 18 languages, allowing everyone to be heard, seen, and understood during video calls. Meanwhile, Google Chat takes on the role of a Chatbot, assisting with content-related queries, document summaries, and more, all within a redesigned user interface with enhanced search functionality.
However, Duet AI’s capabilities aren’t confined to Workspace alone. It extends its support across a plethora of Google Cloud products and services:
- Software Development: Duet AI serves as a coding assistant, expediting development and aiding in code refactoring throughout the software development lifecycle. Thanks to Apigee integration, developers can now build APIs using natural language prompts.
- Application and Infrastructure Operations: Operators can directly interact with Duet AI within the Google Cloud Console, receiving guidance on infrastructure configurations, deployment best practices, and recommendations for optimizing costs and performance.
- Data Analytics: BigQuery now boasts enhanced AI features, providing contextual assistance for SQL queries and Python code, code generation, and schema-based recommendations. This empowers data teams to focus on achieving their business objectives.
- Database Modernization: Duet AI generates code for data management using natural language, covering Cloud Spanner, AlloyDB, Cloud SQL, and Database Migration Service (DMS), streamlining the conversion of database code.
- Security Operations: In the security realm, Duet AI integrates with a suite of security products, empowering professionals to proactively prevent threats, streamline workflows, and fortify overall organizational protection.
Unifying Data and AI for Limitless Insights
Efficiency and productivity are paramount when unlocking new insights with data at the core of GenAI. Google Cloud is committed to simplifying analytics at scale by expanding its ecosystem of partnerships with various data providers. Key innovations in this domain include:
- BigQuery Studio: A unified solution for data engineering, analytics, and predictive analysis, seamlessly integrated with Vertex AI foundation models. Implementing AI capabilities into data lakehouses enhances cross-cloud analytics, strengthens governance, and facilitates secure data sharing.
- AlloyDB AI: Offering a comprehensive set of capabilities for building high-performance GenAI apps, whether on-premises, within the Google Cloud ecosystem, AWS, Azure, or through the versatile Google Distributed Cloud infrastructure.
