Google is introducing a new artificial intelligence (AI) mode that more firmly embeds chatbot capabilities into its search engine, aiming to give users the experience of having a conversation with an expert. The "AI Mode" was made available in the US on Tuesday, appearing as an option in Google's search bar. The change, unveiled at the company's annual developers conference in Mountain View, California, is part of the tech giant's push to remain competitive against ChatGPT and other AI services, which threaten to erode Google's dominance of online search. The company also announced plans for its own augmented reality glasses and said it planned to offer a subscription AI tool.

Google I/O 2025 is nearly upon us. The tech giant's annual developers conference begins Tuesday, May 20, in Mountain View, California, and all things AI are on the menu. As in years past, Google I/O is set to open with a company keynote (likely led by CEO Sundar Pichai) followed by a developers keynote. The company is expected to drop its biggest I/O news and announcements during these presentations. If you're not attending I/O in person, here's how you can watch both keynotes live from the comfort of your own couch.

The apple blossoms are sprouting, the sun is finally rising before your alarm goes off, and Google CEO Sundar Pichai is wiping down the lenses of his Gemini-powered smart glasses. You know what that means: It's once again time for Google I/O. Google is going all out for its annual I/O developer conference, which begins on Tuesday, May 20. The event is taking place at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, just down the road from Google's headquarters. The keynote starts at 10 am PDT on Tuesday, and as usual, it will be livestreamed.

Waymo, the autonomous ride-hailing company that launched its services in Los Angeles late last year, is recalling more than 1,200 vehicles due to a software defect, the National Highway Traffic Safety Assn. said Wednesday. The recall comes after a series of minor crashes with gates, chains and other obstacles in the road that did not result in any injuries, the Mountain View, Calif.-based company said in a filing with the NHTSA. The recall applies to 1,212 driverless vehicles operating on Waymo's fifth-generation automated driving software. Waymo released a software update to resolve the issue, and that update has already been rolled out in all affected vehicles, the recall notice said. The company operates more than 1,500 vehicles across Los Angeles, San Francisco, Phoenix and Austin.

Temporal Context A wareness: A Defense Framework Against Multi-turn Manipulation Attacks on Large Language Models Prashant Kulkarni ORCID: 0009-0004-2344-4840 Mountain View, CA Assaf Namer ORCID: 0009-0008-5579-0544 Mountain View, CA Abstract --Many Large Language Models (LLMs) today are vulnerable to multi-turn manipulation attacks,where adversaries gradually build context through seemingly benign conversational turns to elicit harmful or unauthorized responses. These attacks exploit the temporal nature of dialogue to evade single-turn detection methods, posing a significant risk to the safe deployment of LLMs. This paper introduces the T emporal Context A wareness (TCA)framework, a novel defense mechanism designed to address this challenge by continuously analyzing semantic drift, cross-turn intention consistency, and evolving conversational patterns.The TCA framework integrates dynamic context embedding analysis, cross-turn consistency verification, and progressive risk scoring to detect and mitigate manipulation attempts effectively. Preliminary evaluations on simulated adversarial scenarios demonstrate the framework's potential to identify subtle manipulation patterns often missed by traditional detection techniques, offering a much-needed layer of security for conversational AI systems.In addition to outlining the design of TCA, we analyze diverse attack vectors and their progression across multi-turn conversations, providing valuable insights into adversarial tactics and their impact on LLM vulnerabilities. Our findings underscore the pressing need for robust, context-aware defenses in conversational AI systems and highlight the TCA framework as a promising direction for securing LLMs while preserving their utility in legitimate applications Index T erms --LLM Security, Multi-turn attacks, prompt security, obfuscation, prompt injection, security, trustworthy AI, jailbreak I.

Smart glasses are all the rage in 2024. Amazon has its Echo Frames, Meta has its Ray-Ban smart glasses, and it seems that new brands are unveiling their smart spectacles with each new month of the year. Google sneakily teased a pair of nondescript smart glasses at its I/O event in Mountain View, California. During a demonstration of its camera AI assistant, Gemini Live, a video showed someone asking Gemini Live questions as they pointed their phone camera around, like what neighborhood they were in and what objects nearby made sounds. Then, the speaker asked Gemini Live where she last saw her glasses.

Google held its annual I/O developer event this week. The company gathered software developers, business partners, and folks from the technology press at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, just down the road from Google corporate headquarters for a two-hour presentation. There were Android announcements, there were chatbot announcements. Somebody even blasted rainbow-colored robes into the crowd using a T-shirt cannon. But most of the talk at I/O centered around artificial intelligence.

In speeches and demonstrations at the company's annual developer conference on Tuesday, Google executives showed off a vision for its future, where artificial intelligence helps people work, plan their lives, navigate the physical world and get answers to questions directly. It would change the way the internet works forever.

Google has had an eventful year already, rebranding its AI chatbot from Bard to Gemini and releasing several new AI models. At this year's Google I/O, expect the company to make even more announcements regarding AI, its various apps and services, and potentially some new hardware for 2024. Google's annual developer conference is approaching quickly, taking place on May 14 and 15 at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. The opening day keynote, when Google leaders take the stage to unveil the company's latest hardware and software, will begin at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. You can register for the event on the Google I/O landing page for free to take advantage of perks such as receiving email updates and watching on-demand sessions.
