Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Video search will let people point their camera at something, ask a question about it, and get search results.<\/b><\/p>\n

Android and iPhone users globally will gain access to the feature from 1700 GMT by enabling “AI Overviews” in their Google app, but it will only support English at launch.<\/p>\n

It is the latest move from the tech giant to change how people search online by utilising artificial intelligence (AI).<\/p>\n

It comes three months after ChatGPT-maker OpenAI announced it was trialling the ability to search by asking its chatbot questions.<\/p>\n

Google introduced AI-generated results at the top of certain search queries this year, with mixed results.<\/p>\n

In May, the feature drew criticism for providing erratic, inaccurate answers, which included advising people to make cheese stick to pizza by using “non-toxic glue”.<\/p>\n

At the time, a Google spokesperson said the issues were “isolated examples”. The results have since become better, with fewer inaccuracies.<\/p>\n

Since then, there have been further moves to include AI in search, which included the ability to ask questions about still images using Google Lens.<\/p>\n

The firm said this feature has increased the popularity of Lens, within its mobile app, which has motivated it to expand the feature further.<\/p>\n

Hooked on video<\/b><\/p>\n

Google’s head of search Liz Reid said the new capability would let people ask questions about the world around them more easily.<\/p>\n

She gave the example of a person at an aquarium, who might want to find out why a group of fish are swimming in unison.<\/p>\n

Instead of having to search for the fish online and write out the query, the new feature will let them point their camera, record a short clip and ask a question out loud.<\/p>\n

Google’s AI will analyse the video, identify the fish, combine that with the question and produce search results.<\/p>\n

Industry analyst Paolo Pescatore said this was a “big thing” for Google.<\/p>\n

“We are now seeing AI in everything and people connect best with visuals,” he said.<\/p>\n

“This latest development further demonstrates new ways of bringing content to life with something like search which is one of the most common tasks carried out on the internet.<\/p>\n

“Here lies scope for AI to be truly collaborative and an innovator in everyday life – we are on the brink of AI becoming personalised and unique based upon our usage patterns and habits.”<\/p>\n

Other ways to search<\/b><\/p>\n

As well as introducing a way to search by video, Google has also released several other updates.<\/p>\n

It says it has improved its shopping results, which will now incorporate reviews and pricing information from different sellers.<\/p>\n

And it is also introducing a competitor to the music-identifying app Shazam, which is owned by Apple.<\/p>\n

The rival tool, accessible through Circle to Search on an Android device, will let people identify songs from a website they’re on or a show they’re streaming without leaving the app.<\/p>\n

Google’s new features come as it faces growing challengers in the search space, where it is estimated to have cornered more than 90% of the market globally.<\/p>\n

This includes OpenAI, which revealed in July it was trialling a search feature within ChatGPT.<\/p>\n

SearchGPT lets people search the internet by asking questions to a chatbot, and it is being tested by a limited number of users in the US.<\/p>\n

OpenAI’s value surged to $157bn (\u00a3120bn) on Wednesday after it raised $ 6.6billion in its latest funding round from high-profile investors including Microsoft.<\/p>\n

Google’s new announcements are likely a way to combat the growth of rival firms – though none are yet to truly threaten its massive dominance.<\/p>\n
