February AI News Announcement

For over two decades, we at Google have been diving deep into machine learning and AI, crafting tools and infrastructure to enhance everyday life for folks everywhere. Our teams are pushing the boundaries of AI across various sectors like healthcare, crisis management, and education. To keep you in the loop, we're rolling out a regular update on the latest AI news from Google, covering our products, research, and more.
Let's take a quick peek at some of our AI highlights from February.
Kicking things off in Paris this month, our CEO Sundar Pichai shared his thoughts on why AI might just be the biggest game-changer we'll see in our lifetimes. He highlighted how AI is already making waves for people, businesses, science, and society on a massive scale. That's why we're doubling down on the tech behind the AI revolution. And that's also why we rolled out Gemini 2.0 to everyone — it's opening up a whole world of possibilities for businesses and developers, and it's now part of the Gemini app.
As we keep pushing the envelope with our frontier models, more people will feel the benefits of AI, and fast. But that's just one piece of the puzzle. Here's a rundown of some other cool AI tools we launched in February.
We kicked off a new experiment called Career Dreamer, aimed at helping folks explore new career paths. This AI tool takes a look at your background, skills, and interests to suggest potential job opportunities. Plus, it teams up with Gemini — your AI buddy from Google — to help you whip up a professional story and cover letter, and even points you towards training resources like Google Career Certificates.
We also let loose a free AI coding assistant. Developers have been using Gemini 2.0 Flash to create helpful apps. Now, they can tap into free AI-assisted coding help — with the most generous usage limits around — and get code review support. It's another way we're backing developers to craft useful apps and top-notch code.
We brought Veo 2 to YouTube Shorts, giving creators more ways to shine. Veo 2 is our newest video generation model, capable of creating high-quality videos across various subjects and styles. You can give it a whirl next time you're making a YouTube Short with Dream Screen, a feature that turns your text prompt into AI-generated backgrounds and even full video clips for Shorts.
We released Deep Research on the Gemini mobile app, so you can get your answers on the move. Available for advanced users on the Gemini app for Android and iOS, Deep Research can whip up comprehensive, easy-to-digest reports on almost any research topic. It's a real time-saver and a fresh way to tackle and simplify complex info, quick and easy.
We also launched an AI system for scientists. Built on Gemini 2.0, our AI co-scientist is helping researchers come up with new biomedical hypotheses and research plans. The system's ideas have already shown some promising results in drug discovery and fighting antimicrobial resistance.
We rolled out some slick new features for flood experts in Flood Hub. With floods wreaking havoc worldwide, AI-driven flood forecasting and response can make a real difference. Our new advanced features in Flood Hub — like inundation history maps and basin view — are helping aid organizations and governments support communities at risk. We're also teaming up more with international aid groups like Give Directly and the International Rescue Committee to help those hit by floods.
At the AI Action Summit in Paris, Sundar called this moment the potential start of a golden age of innovation. AI-powered advancements are driving huge progress in fields like health, energy, transportation, road safety, and disaster response — and speeding up scientific discovery. But, as Sundar pointed out, the biggest benefits of AI aren't set in stone. He talked about what it'll take to make the most of this historic moment, and how leaders in the public and private sectors, along with civil society, can help usher in this new era of innovation. To that end, in February, we also shared our new Policy Framework for Building the Future of Science and kicked off a new initiative to use AI to improve the treatment of women's cancer. It's all part of our bigger push to make sure the most advanced AI benefits everyone, across all of society.

O anúncio de notícias de IA de fevereiro do Google é sempre um destaque! É legal ver como eles estão levando a IA para a saúde e educação. Mas às vezes parece que estão apenas mostrando sua tecnologia sem mergulhar no impacto real. Ainda assim, é emocionante ver o que vem a seguir! Continue assim, Google! 🚀

Las noticias de AI de Google siempre me emocionan sobre el futuro! Es genial ver cómo están usando la IA en la salud y la educación. Pero a veces los anuncios son un poco técnicos para que yo los entienda completamente. ¿Quizás podrían añadir más términos para no expertos? 🤓
