Tech giant Google showed off its latest artificial intelligence (AI) tools this week at the CES 2024 trade show in Las Vegas.
Google’s booth offered a glimpse of AI-powered features across the Google and Android ecosystem – including generative AI tools for both creative and work-use cases.
Duet AI, which is integrated across Google Workspace and Google Cloud, is a generative AI tool that can be used for summarizing content and drafting emails, lists or data sets.

WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)?
Embedded in Google Messages, Magic Compose uses generative AI to offer suggested responses based on the context of a conversation with others in the app.

It can also be used to revise text written by the user into a different style, such as making the message "lyrical" or "Shakespearean" if a user wants.
Google’s CES exhibit also featured Magic Editor, which was made available on select Pixel phones late last year.
Users can erase unwanted objects from photos by circling or brushing them, move objects by tapping and dragging them across the photo, resize them by pinching, or improve the background lighting.
