Project Astra: Google's AI agent that can 'see the world' using your phone camera Use cases that stood out to me: > Summarizing a book page in seconds and chatting with it for follow-ups on complex topics (professor-in-your-pocket) > Identifying a rash: just seasonal hives or something more serious?... show more

I've been an early tester + had in-person demos for most of Google’s AI projects announced today. I found several practical use cases that will benefit everyday people. 12 use cases of Project Astra/Deep Research Agents/Project Mariner (beyond the hype):

Deep Research Agent: Google’s new research assistant that create's full reports on any topic and links back to the relevant sources. Use cases that stood out to me: > Coming up with interview questions based on what people are curious about across the internet. > Conducting market research on stocks (e.g., "Why did Google stock go up today?"). > Creating a full Christmas gift plan for my mom (based on current trends and her preferences highlighted in the prompt) > Creating an analysis and report of my health/fitness and how I can improve based on my Whoop data.

Project Mariner: Google's new AI agent that can reason, click the screen, type, and work on your behalf through Chrome. Use cases that stood out to me: > Christmas shopping on my behalf based on my Christmas wishlist > Grocery shopping on my behalf based on my Grocery shopping list (I didn't get to try this one too much, I just got a 20 min in-person hands-on demo at the Google HQ)

Beyond the hype, here's my candid feedback for each project: Astra: Needs improved latency and stronger emotional intelligence to feel like an “AI Companion.” Microsoft Copilot Vision/Voice still sets the bar higher here. Deep Research: A toggle to control report length and estimated completion time would be a game-changer for customization. Mariner: Would benefit from voice prompts, better task steering, and notifications via Slack or text when tasks are complete. Overall: Google should avoid launching everything cool at once—it’s overwhelming for creators, journalists, and users trying to explore it all at the same time! 😅 All of the projects have room for improvement. But they’re clear glimpses of what’s coming next and already have several practical use cases. Deep Research, in particular, has already become a staple part of my AI tool stack.

I’ll have a full rundown of all Google's AI updates in tomorrow’s newsletter. If you’re tired of spending your day scrolling X to keep up with AI news, just read our 5-min daily email every morning 🙂 & to support my work, like/retweet the first tweet:

Imagine Google's AI agent using a phone camera as the eyes of a robot that walks and talks. Wait. It might even be able to drive, depending on latency.

Does this feel different from what you get from gemini 2 flash on aistudio?

Fascinating AI capabilities! Imagine if web3 AI agents could leverage similar tech. Opencord's Twitter and Reddit agents could help builders promote their creations through intuitive social replies. AI helping AI grow - that's the future!
