Googles latest AI tools

Hey clever people,

Here is your no-fluff summary of Google's AI. 

Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai, just dropped one of the most honest & chilling interviews about AI, & we are SO ready for it (ready or not, here AI comes!).

Here are the top 8 takeaways (No. 6 might haunt you)

1. Token Explosion

Gemini now consumes 480 trillion tokens/month, up from 9.7 trillion last year. That's 50x growth in 12 months talk about taking tokens for granted!). Each token is an insight, a message, & a solved problem. Multiply that by billions (that's a lot of token gestures).

2. AGI Timeline?

Experts say 2030. Sundar says: "I don't think we'll quite get there by 2030." But he warns: the world will change long before AGI arrives (AGI or not, here we come!).

3. AI as a Civilization Shift

 Like agriculture unlocked cities and pottery... AI will unlock abilities for 8 billion people. Thoughts will shift with things.

4. Hidden Ultra-Models Exist

Google has already built ultra-powerful AI. Why haven't we seen them? They're "too slow and expensive to serve (sounds like my last road trip).

5. Productivity Hack

30% of Google's code is now AI-assisted. Result? 10% company-wide productivity boost (that's some serious code-switching!). And they're hiring more engineers, not fewer. The opportunity isn't shrinking. It's multiplying (like a trend that is good for everyone).

6. P(doom): The Risk Is Real

Yes, Google's leadership talks about extinction (not the dinosaur kind). Sundar says: "The underlying risk is high. He believes the world will only unite after the danger becomes obvious, a terrifying bet (betting against humanity? That's a risky algorithm).

7. The $2 Trillion Comeback

Remember when critics said Google had lost the AI race (more like they were pacing themselves)? That's when Sundar quietly merged Brain and DeepMind. He calls it: "Like putting Stanford and MIT together”.

8. Chrome Strategy, Repeated

In 2004, building a browser was "crazy." Sundar built Chrome 25x faster than competitors (superhuman digital edition). Lesson? Build infrastructure before the market knows it needs it. He's applying that same playbook to AI.
