9:13 am
cnet. good morning. although the word is spreading about artificial intelligence, we are really only seeing a limited application for a phones. like editing tools. are there any examples of phones going beyond that right now. >> i think like you mentioned where we are really starting is seeing the one-off features like photo editing, language translations and things like that. you have to remember this industry is moving really fast. a year ago we were not even really talking about generative a.i. on smart phones yet. i think of the future we will see generative a.i. play a bigger role in how you use your phones. one way we are kind of seeing that today is a feature called circle to search. as the name implies you hold down the home button on your phone and it can circle honest anything on your screen to automatically launch a google search about the product or item. it is a small feature is something that people may use occasionally right now but i think the idea of having

9:15 am
many apps. it is hard to say exactly what is in store but that seems to be the trend that the industry is likely moving in. >> with the news apple could partner with google to incorporate a generative a.i. into our phones, it begs the question, when will we see this kind of integration actually pick up? >> i think it will continue to move fast. a year ago we were not talking about this. now we are seeing it on new samsung phones and pixel phones and we have googles developer conference coming up next month. we will probably hear more about generative a.i. and smartphones them. right after that in june we have apple's worldwide developer conference where the company is expected to make some announcements around generative a.i. and it will likely unveil how it is going to tie the technology into the iphone. as early as later this year we will see more advancements in the space. >> thank you. we are looking forward to that. a.i. is not just making a difference in our lives but scientists are using it to help improve one of the wonders of
