Google has developed a system that will digitally mark images arranged or produced by artificial intelligence, taking a new step against the increasingly more widespread of content created with artificial intelligence.

Google has integrated SynthID technology into the Google Photos application to ensure that artificial intelligence -supported content is defined in a transparent way. This new technology will detect the changes made with Magic Editor’s “Reimagine” feature, adding a digital watermark to visuals, sounds, texts and videos. SynthID will leave a sign that the content is created or edited by artificial intelligence, using an unceasant but unceased waterfield. Thus, users will have more information about the origin of such content.

The company has long been using Synthid technology in visuals produced by artificial intelligence. However, this new update has expanded its system not only what was produced by artificial intelligence, but also the visuals organized with productive artificial intelligence. Nevertheless, Google, who states that small arrangements may not be perceived by Synthid, acknowledges that minimal changes, such as changing the color of an object, may not trigger the addition of watermarks.

Users to make sure that a image they see is arranged with artificial intelligence when they wantUsing the Google Lens or Circle To Search feature, they will be able to get more information with the option “about this image” option. This tool will show more context about the content by showing the history of the image, meta data and how it is used in other news sources.

This step of the company aims to increase transparency in the digital world where artificial intelligence -supported content increases rapidly. While the discussions on how to use artificial intelligence ethically used, large technology companies such as Google continue to develop new solutions to identify and distinguish such content.

Google is launching a new operating system that brings together virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) experiences. Androidofficially announced.

The “XR” in Android Android XR was designed to make users’ virtual and augmented reality experiences more interactive and efficient.

Google has integrated popular applications such as Maps, YouTube, Chrome and Photos into this new platform. will. In addition, other applications offered through the Play Store are planned to be compatible with Android XR, so users will be able to access a wide range of applications.

Google Chrome with Advanced Multitasking Capabilities

One of the key features of Android XR is that Google Chrome offers improved multitasking capabilities. Users will be able to open and organize browser tabs more flexibly. This will be a great convenience, especially when doing research or working with multiple sources.

Google’s Gemini AI, a key feature of Android XR, is designed to further improve the user experience. Gemini AI will assist the user with every task and offer audio and video capture capabilities. These artificial intelligence-supported features will make interactions more effortless by providing faster and more accurate answers to users’ questions.

Although Android XR is still in its early stages, Google plans to release devices supporting this operating system sometime next year. Currently, users who want to try this experience must meet certain requirements:

1. Participating in experimental AI features: Users must choose to participate in experimental AI features through their Google account.
2. Having Compatible Devices: Only users with select Google Home devices, such as Nest Audio and Nest Mini (2nd generation), will be able to test the Android XR experience.
3. Turning on Voice Matching Feature: To use the new AI-powered experience, voice matching needs to be enabled on each device.

This early preview version is available in English only, in the United States, and for users 18 and over. Users living outside the US will not be able to access this new AI-powered experience. Google aims to offer these features to a wider user base in the future.

In a message published on Team Blind, it was claimed that Google had pressed the button for layoffs and that there would be a massacre in January. Without further ado, let’s take a closer look at what happened.

Team Blind is a social platform for people working in the technology industry. People share messages anonymously here. Recently, someone who stated that he was an Alphabet employee said, GoogleHe claimed that he would start layoffs in January. It is emphasized that despite the increase in productivity among Google engineers, the criteria have been tightened and those who do not meet the criteria will be separated.

So what exactly is going on at Google? Parent company Alphabet derives the bulk of its revenue from its search engine and advertising businesses. Google dominates the search engine industry. However, the US Department of Justice stated that Google had monopolistic practices in the search market and filed an antitrust lawsuit. That’s why the legal battle between the US Department of Justice and Alphabet is taking place. For this reason, investors were cautious about investing in the company’s shares. Part of the problems experienced in stocks are also due to the shift of artificial intelligence investments to hardware manufacturers (Nvidia).

Alphabet actually made earnings in the third quarter this year that exceeded analysts’ estimates. Still, some analysts from the industry emphasize that alarm bells are ringing. At the financial meeting where Alphabet announced its earnings, new CFO Anat Ashkenazi also summarized the company’s new strategy. Anat Ashkenazi, who worked for pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly for more than 20 years and moved to Alphabet, announced that they will improve the operations throughout the company with the use of artificial intelligence.

Anat Ashkenazi’s statements, the antitrust case, the shift in investments in shares, and in such an environment, the allegation of dismissal came to the fore. According to the message on Team Blind, Google increased the percentage of underperforming employees from 8% to 10%. As we mentioned before, although productivity has increased among engineers, the criteria have become more stringent. Thus, low-performing employees can be identified more easily than before. It is claimed that it is not necessary to just show poor performance to be dismissed. Other factors such as taking part in the wrong project, causing disruptions in a project that is going well, and being on the radar of managers due to performance are also among the reasons for dismissal.
