Google has released Glanceable place highlights by Google's AI, it can show you review summaries, photos and reviews that summarize what people love about a place. When checking out a restaurant and scrolling through photos of the food, Google will use AI tools to help identify what a dish is called and show you helpful information based on the menu — like what it costs, if it’s popular, and even if there are vegetarian or vegan options.
Google has also provided an update to their visibility and discoverability to trusted lists such as Open Table and the New York Times. You can also search by new top, trending and gem restaurant lists. These lists are based on what Google Maps users like local guides are interested in the area you are searching. You can now choose the order places appear in your list - so you can organize them chronologically like an itinerary, or rank which ones you liked best. In your lists, you can also link to content from your social channels.
And, you can ask Google for trip ideas and get a sample itinerary that pulls together daily suggestions for attractions and dining, along with an overview of flight and hotel options. SGE is bringing together helpful information from across the web, plus all the reviews and photos that people have shared with Google for more than 200 million places around the world. To get started, just enroll in Search Labs and enable Search Generative Experience (SGE).
Google has also rolled out Ai tools that help you shop online by favoriting your brands. The Google app can select brands they’d like to see more of while shopping with Google. Once you’ve selected them, you’ll see options from those brands right away. Google clearly believes that using AI throughout their suite will improve the over all user experience.
