Tldr:
- Captions in videos. They write here it runs on device and available only if your phone has a tensor chip: https://blog.google/technology/ai/on-device-processing/
- image transcription with gemini 1.5, I don't find more info on it but it sounds like it doesn't run on device, similar to what already available in browsers.
- stickers in gboard. Wow.
- quickshare images with qr code and bluetooth. I remember we sent images via bluetooth in 2004. I don't see why is it an interesting feature in 2024
- some scanning app for googe drive, there are countless alternatives...
- gemini extension with spotifiy, so now gemini can recommend you music from spotify. Like if there was a problem here to solve.
So AI things and rewrapped features. I love that on device things starting to work, but at one point goog will see it's not good for them. If it runs on device, you don't have to feed them data
