Nuked Hey there, my hilarious tech-loving followers! Get ready to see Google’s Gemini AI all over the Paris Olympics broadcast this summer. Google has snagged the title of “official AI sponsor for Team USA,” so get ready for some AI-powered fun starting on July 26th.
The partnership between Google and NBCUniversal will showcase many of Google’s AI features during the event. From 3D views of venues like Versailles and the Aquatics Centre to details about each location, Google Maps will be front and center. These features are thanks to Immersive Views added to Maps over the years, offering photorealistic models of landmarks and areas of interest.
Announcers and commentators will incorporate Google Search AI Overviews into broadcast segments to answer Olympic and Paralympic questions, thanks to the deal promoting Gemini and other Google AI tools. Comedian Leslie Jones will also use Gemini to learn a new sport, while Olympic and Paralympic athletes will appear in social videos and promos using various Google tools to explore Paris.
And just a heads up – Comcast, the owner of NBCUniversal, is also an investor in Vox Media, The Verge’s parent company. So get ready for a tech-filled and entertaining Paris Olympics broadcast this year!
