00:00Google's biggest AI advantage is what it already knows about you.
00:04Google is once again peeking over the fence of the future,
00:07and according to Robbie Stein, VP of Product for Google Search,
00:11the company's biggest AI opportunity might be getting to know you.
00:15On the Limitless podcast, Stein explained that people increasingly ask Google's AI for advice,
00:20what to buy, how to plan things, and which choice makes the least chaos in life.
00:25These questions aren't about cold facts, they're about judgment.
00:28And judgment, Stein argues, gets better when the AI knows who it's talking to.
00:33Huge opportunity, he calls it.
00:35Privacy advocates might call it something else.
00:38Google's strategy? Connect more dots across your digital life.
00:43The company has been sprinkling Gemini, the artist formerly known as Bard,
00:46into everything from Gmail to Calendar to Drive.
00:49Now, with features like Gemini Deep Research,
00:52Google's AI can riff on your emails, documents, photos, location history, and even your browsing habits.
00:58The pitch? Ultra-personalized answers that understand what you actually like,
01:02instead of dumping generic best-seller lists on you.
01:05Of course, that's also how every dystopian show begins.
01:08Apple TV's Pluribus gets a shout-out here.
01:11Its omniscient AI others can cook your favorite dinner before you're hungry,
01:15impersonate people you trust, and generally behave like the world's most overbearing roommate.
01:19The protagonist calls it invasive.
01:22Google calls it the future of search.
01:24To its credit, Google insists users stay in control.
01:28You can pick which apps teach Gemini about you.
01:30And the privacy policy politely warns that human reviewers might see some of your data,
01:35so maybe don't feed Gemini your darkest secrets or legally questionable side quests.
01:40Still, the more Google centralizes personal data for helpfulness,
01:43the blurrier the line gets between assistant and surveillance sponge.
01:46Stein says Google plans to label personalized responses clearly and even imagines smart nudges,
01:53like pinging you when that product you've been stalking finally goes on sale.
01:57In Google's view, this always-there, always-you-aware AI is the real future of search.
02:03Whether it feels magical or mildly creepy will depend on how delicately Google balances usefulness with boundaries.
02:16Keep it all a lot of information,
02:18you will take advantage of paying attention to whether it's a fair or retail option.
02:20It's a fair, super adaptable.
02:23And or it may be a minority of light-ano,
02:24we cannot- weekly means to hide in the comments.
02:25Now we try to switch to the response for the fullweise.
02:28There can be違 TED is a variable% of the average storytelling approach,
02:34which is the very
02:39for the full formalized development.
