Google's AI-driven News app will make sense of the day's news

Google confirmed earlier rumors surrounding its News app at the I/O developers conference on Tuesday, showing off a completely reimagined product designed to handle the rigors of our modern news cycle. The company is heavily leveraging its existing AI and Machine Learning technologies to analyze news articles in real time and organize them into storylines. The AI reportedly "understands the people, places and things involved in a story as it evolves, and connects how they relate to one another," according to a release. How the system will weed out disreputable or falsified sources, remains to be seen. Using this automated vetting system, the new Google News app will offer users a personalized stream of content that is most personally important to them.
