Google DeepMind is opening a new research lab in Singapore to expand its presence in the Asia-Pacific region. The company has more than doubled its APAC team over the past year and will focus the Singapore lab on advancing Gemini capabilities, linguistic inclusivity for Asian languages, and collaboration with regional governments and institutions. The expansion aims to tailor AI technologies to serve the diverse needs of Asia-Pacific communities and build on existing applications like using AlphaFold to study Parkinson's disease and developing multilingual AI models for Southeast Asian languages.
Google introduced generative UI, where AI models create complete interactive user interfaces and applications in response to prompts, rather than just text content. Human evaluators strongly preferred interfaces generated by Google's implementation over standard LLM outputs and top search results, though generation currently takes a minute or more. The capability is now available in Google's Gemini app through dynamic view and visual layout experiments, plus in Google Search's AI Mode for paid subscribers.
Intuit and OpenAI entered a multi-year partnership valued at $100 million or more to integrate Intuit applications into ChatGPT and develop personalized financial tools using OpenAI's models. The deal includes embedding Intuit's apps directly within ChatGPT, allowing users to access financial services through the chatbot interface. Intuit gains access to advanced AI models to enhance its software offerings while OpenAI gains a major enterprise customer for its commercial services.
