Every company accomplishes a lot of things over the course of a year. Google, one of the largest companies in the world, has accomplished a ton this year, and it’s not shy about letting us know. In a new blog post, Google lets us know its achievements in 2023, and most of them are centered around AI.
Google has been working on artificial intelligence for years. It’s on the mission to push humanity forward with powerful and innovative technology. Well, that was its mission until November 20th, 2022, the date that ChatGPTfirst launched. Since then, it feels like the company has just been trying to keep up to keep OpenAI from stealing Google’s primary source of income. So, it should be no surprise that the company is really going ham on the AI.
2023 was the year of Google AI
The company listed 23 achievements to celebrate the end of 2023. Dotting the list, there are some achievements that weren’t all about AI. For instance, #4 was welcoming Android 14 (Oh Google, that one should have been #14). #5 was the welcoming of the Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 7a, and Pixel Fold while #6 was the company welcoming the Pixel Tablet and the Pixel Buds Pro.
The list goes on with the company talking about other achievements like the Pixel Watch 2, Immersive View for Maps, RCS, passkeys, Chromebook Plus, and a few more. These are all notable achievements and some of them filled the headlines.
However, Google’s AI achievements tipped the scale in this regard. The blog post notes the company’s AI releases, and there are a lot of them. This year has been long, so it’s early to forget about some of the things that the company did.
To no one’s surprise, welcoming Gemini was #1, and releasing Bard was #2. These are two of the company’s biggest generative AI products, and they showed just how powerful Google’s AI is. We can’t forget about the Generative AI in Search (#3), AI tools added to Workspace (#14, #15) Duet AI in Google Cloud (#16), and more. All in all
All in all, 11 of the 23 items involved AI in some way shape, or form. It shows that 2023 was the year for Google AI, and the company is excited about expanding the list in 2024.
