Project Astra: Our vision for the future of AI assistants

May 14, 2024

Introducing Project Astra. We created a demo in which a tester interacts with a prototype of AI agents supported by our multimodal foundation model, Gemini.

There are two continuous takes: one with the prototype running on a Google Pixel phone and another on a prototype glasses device.

The agent takes in a constant stream of audio and video input. It can reason about its environment in real time and interact with the tester in a conversation about what it is seeing.

Siri and Alexa never managed to be useful assistants. But Google and others are convinced the next generation of bots is really going to work.
