“#Google Search is getting a new AI-powered spell checker<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Google yesterday announced<\/a> a range of AI-powered enhancements to its search engine, including a new algorithm that improves spelling corrections.<\/p>\n

The tool uses a deep neural net with 680 million parameters to better understand the context of misspelled words.\u00a0It runs in 3 milliseconds \u2014 faster than one flap of a hummingbird\u2019s wings, according to Google.<\/p>\n

The algorithm will be incorporated in Google\u2019s \u201cdid you mean\u201d feature by the end of the month.\u00a0Cathy Edwards, VP of engineering at Google, said<\/a>\u00a0it will improve the feature \u201cmore in this one day than it has the last five years combined.\u201d<\/p>\n

Google is also using AI to improve highly specific searches. These currently don\u2019t always produce the\u00a0results you need, if the answer isn\u2019t the main focus of a page.<\/p>\n

But Google has now developed a way of ranking not just web pages, but also individual passages on the page. This enables the system to zoom onto the relevant section and pick out only the relevant content. Google says it will improve 7% of search queries across all languages when it rolls out next month.<\/p>\n

Another update is designed to understand the\u00a0subtopics around a broader\u00a0search. For example, when you search for \u201chome exercise equipment,\u201d the system will deliver more specific results, such as budget and smaller gear. This feature will start rolling this out by the end of this year.<\/p>\n

Another upcoming Google feature<\/span>\u00a0will\u00a0automatically tag key moments in videos, so you can flick through them like chapters in a book.\u00a0The company expects 10% of searches to use this by the end of 2020.<\/p>\n

Google is also adding a new COVID-19 safety feature to Google Maps. The company says you\u2019ll soon get to see live how busy a place is directly in the map, without having to search for a specific business, which could be handy for anyone trying to avoid crowds during the pandemic.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
