Google plans to give you a personalized AI chatbot, you just have to feed it your Google Photos،

At some point we'll meet a tall, dark stranger, but before that, Google plans to introduce us to Project Ellman and its next-generation AI capabilities.

Just days after the search engine giant introduced the Gemini model, CNBC reports that Google is working on something else: creating a personalized chatbot that can answer “previously impossible questions” about one's life (via 9to5Google).

According to the source, the Ellman Project (named after the literary critic Richard David Ellmann, who was the biographer of the writers James Joyce, Oscar Wilde and William Butler Yeats) will use LLMs (large models of language) to become aware of the things he has been fed. with.

What does this have to do with my Google Photos?

In short, if done correctly, the Ellman Project could ultimately have a conversation with you about your life based on your photos and search results (if you give Ellman the access it needs) – the goal is that the chatbot knows you in advance and is “Your life story teller”.

For example, a class reunion could be recognized by the AI project as such, if it sees a photo of you at a class reunion: “It's been exactly 10 years since he graduated and he is full of faces we haven't seen in 10 years so it's probably a reunion.”

“We go through your photos, examining their tags and locations to identify a significant moment,” a presentation slide seen by CNBC says: “When we step back and understand your life in its entirety, your overall story becomes clear.”

Additionally, the chatbot could get a more complete picture of you based on the screenshots you take and draw conclusions about your hobbies, interests, upcoming travel plans and purchases, your websites favorites, your food photos, etc.

This thing will probably give some people nightmares.

This technology would come in the form of a chatbot for a user described as follows: “Imagine opening ChatGPT but it already knows everything about your life. What would you ask him?
