  Immersive view in @GoogleMaps is a new way to experience what a neighborhood, landmark, restaurant and venue will be like — and even feel like you're right there. It uses advances in computer vision and AI to fuse together billions of Street View images. #GoogleIO https://twitter…

  Between Apple and Google doing this, maps are going to become rapidly virtualized to a different degree https://twitter.com/...

  Central Kurdish (Sorani) is now also available on @Google Translate! It's been already available on @Bing for some years. If you speak Kurdish but can't read Sorani yet, you definitely should learn it. It's not that hard. Just 32-36 letters. https://twitter.com/...

  6/ We're adding 24 new languages to Google Translate, spoken by more than 300 million people. We did it with an AI technique called ‘zero-shot learning’ — the model learned to translate without ever seeing translations in these languages. https://blog.google/...

  Current translation services tend to cover about 100 of the languages in the world. Google has just announced new machine learned translation integrating deep learning with NLP. Very cool. https://ai.googleblog.com/...

  We have gone beyond the world of “The Jetsons!” Google unwrapped a new prototype pair of augmented reality glasses that can automatically translate speech for wearers that speak different languages. Having both a VCR and HBO was the highlight of my childhood!

  Super excited to share Tigrinya & Oromo have been added to Google Translate! One of the most meaningful features I've had the pleasure of supporting. **Just launched today but it won't get to users worldwide until the next couple of days. https://twitter.com/...

  We recently launched multisearch in the Google app, which lets you search by taking a photo and asking a question at the same time. Later this year, you'll be able to take a picture or screenshot and add “near me” to get local results. #GoogleIO https://twitter.com/...

  The potential for Google Lens is fascinating. From discovering where to buy things you see IRL to seeing the actual reviews of those things. But honestly, I don't see people using it. Has anyone ever used Google Lens in a practical situation, outside of the novelty of it? https:/…

  Imagine you want to learn more about multiple items on a shelf. In the future, Google Search will offer “scene exploration” to help you with this or similar tasks, to bring back info about multiple objects all at once. Stay tuned & learn more! #GoogleIO https://blog.google/... ht…

  2/ In Google Search, we unveiled a new multisearch feature to help people find information about local businesses. And our “scene exploration” advancement uses your camera to pan a scene and show insights about multiple objects in a space. https://blog.google/...

  You can now search using images AND text at the same time and add “near me” to the search to find local options. Apparently not *yet* MUM powered. https://twitter.com/...
