Among the innovations is a dedicated mailbox where virtual assistants send reports on completed tasks.<\/p>\n<p>The Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform will feature two new modules: Memory Bank and Memory Profile, enabling agents to retain interaction histories with users. Agent Simulation will allow developers to thoroughly test tools before deployment.<\/p>\n<p>Google introduced updates for the Workspace application suite and described a scenario where AI agents radically transform the daily life of an ordinary worker.<\/p>\n<p>The corporation stated that employees could use Gemini Enterprise to create virtual assistants without coding.<\/p>\n<p>The company also announced Projects\u2014a collaborative platform designed for interaction among workers or with support operators.<\/p>\n<p>The tool integrates information from various sources such as Workspace, Microsoft&#8217;s OneDrive, and corporate chats, allowing work to be conducted with the necessary context.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Fund<\/h2>\n<p>Google Cloud announced a $750 million fund aimed at assisting consulting firms like McKinsey, Accenture, and Deloitte in implementing agent AI for clients.<\/p>\n<p>DeepMind will provide select firms with early access to Gemini AI models before their official release.<\/p>\n<p>The capital will be directed towards training engineers, developing AI agents through the corporate platform, and co-funding projects and pre-sales activities.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cConsulting firms are at the heart of some of the largest transformations occurring with clients. They understand the situation and bring unique expertise in specific industries and knowledge of business processes,\u201d said Kevin Ichhpurani, head of Google Cloud&#8217;s global partner ecosystem.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Chips<\/h2>\n<p>Google Cloud has introduced a new generation of its proprietary tensor processing units (TPUs), designed to accelerate and reduce the cost of AI computations.<\/p>\n<p>The lineup includes two versions:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>TPU 8t \u2014 designed for AI development;<\/li>\n<li>TPU 8i \u2014 better suited for inference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Google holds a strong position among AI chip manufacturers, competing with Nvidia. In recent months, TPUs have seen increased demand in Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n<p>The new processors store more information, reducing response latency.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s about ensuring the lowest possible response latency at the lowest possible cost per operation,\u201d noted Mark Lohmeyer, Google&#8217;s vice president of compute infrastructure.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>AI services are created and launched using systems capable of rapidly processing large data sets\u2014identifying connections and patterns that are then expressed mathematically. Calculations, program launches, and services are executed on processors with large amounts of built-in memory.<\/p>\n<p>This approach allows AI responses to be almost instantaneous, as the component does not need to retrieve data from external sources.<\/p>\n<p>TPU 8t units can be clustered in groups of 9600. At such scales, energy consumption becomes a key factor. The new chips offer 124% greater performance per watt compared to the previous generation. TPU 8i offers 117%.<\/p>\n<p>Back in April, Google <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/google-and-pentagon-discuss-integration-of-gemini\">discussed<\/a> with the U.S. Department of Defense the possibility of integrating Gemini into Pentagon systems across all information access categories\u2014from open to top-secret.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google has unveiled a suite of tools designed to aid companies in automating tasks through AI agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":96440,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"Google unveils AI tools and $750M fund for automation.","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[438,738],"class_list":["post-96439","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-google"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"8","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"Google unveils AI tools and $750M fund for automation.","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96439","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96439"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96439\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":96441,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96439\/revisions\/96441"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/96440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=96439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=96439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
