Today Google joined the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and industry peers in signing the Secure by Design Pledge. Google's security strategy depends on secure-by-design products, which improve our collective security.
We’re helping build a strong #cybersecurity workforce and combat #cyberattacks by supporting 15 new cybersecurity clinics at higher ed institutions across the U.S. Learn more about the Google Cybersecurity Clinics Fund and new Cyber Clinics here: https://goo.gle/3VbAjOL
We recently hosted Google I/O — our annual flagship event featuring company and product announcements — we showcased new initiatives and shared demonstrations that spotlight ways we’re making AI helpful for everyone. Here are a few highlights:
We unveiled LearnLM (https://bit.ly/3wOpnOX), our new family of models fine-tuned for learning and grounded in educational research to make teaching and learning experiences more active, personal, and engaging — tailored to the needs of each individual.
We demonstrated how we can improve knowledge, learning, creativity, and productivity by making AI helpful in our products like Project Starline (https://bit.ly/4bJ1MhQ), our breakthrough video conferencing technology that makes it feel like you’re in the same room as someone you’re connecting with virtually.
We introduced a new, opt-in scam protection feature that will use Gemini Nano’s on-device AI to help detect scam phone calls in a privacy preserving way. Look out for more details later this year. https://bit.ly/3Kn2oxB
And finally, we announced that we’re expanding SynythID’s capabilities to watermark AI-generated text and video. This is an important building block for developing more reliable AI identification tools and empowers people with knowledge of when they’re interacting with generated media. https://bit.ly/4aJftMl
These are just a few of the examples of how we’re working responsibly to make the most of AI’s possibilities through partnerships with industry, civil society, and government. Watch the I/O recap here: https://bit.ly/4aJfrEd.
“There are a lot of goals…and I think that's why if we can corral the efforts of people around the cross-cutting initiatives [such as] AI and innovation, finance, women's power, it will exponentially help all of the goals,” says Kate Garvey, who’s a co-founder of Project Everyone, an initiative aimed at bringing public awareness to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In our final episode of Dialogues Dispatch, Kate has a conversation with Matt Brittin in, President of Google EMEA, about AI and how it can accelerate progress toward the SDGs. They dive into the role of AI in helping to achieve the Goals globally, reflecting on the exciting progress that’s been made, the substantial work ahead, and the value of collaboration across sectors like science, medicine, and education.

“How we transform cities is a complex problem, and we haven't got time for a lot of experiments,” says Lord Nicholas Stern, prominent economist and chair of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change & the Environment. “AI can deliver technological system change at digital speed.”
He joins James Manyika SVP of Research, Technology & Society at Google, for a discussion on how we can realize AI’s full potential for sustainability in ways that are globally inclusive and equitable.

Today, Representative Morgan Cephas, Representative Malcolm Kenyatta, and Congressman Dwight Evans joined us in Philadelphia to announce a new partnership between Google and Community College of Philadelphia to address the critical need for digital training across the Philadelphia workforce.
This partnership will help provide job-ready training to students, fill the 10,000 entry-level jobs in the certificate fields in Pennsylvania, and drive economic opportunity in the state. #GrowWithGooglehttps://goo.gle/4beVoyx
