Although digital technology evolves faster than ever, artificial intelligence (AI) is on top of the innovation agenda now, and the way we’re using computers in our everyday lives is upgraded as well. Opera are the latest company to integrate the Google’s Gemini to their set of AI features in their browser, which means users will have a very different experience from now on. This is just one more proof that technology is now learning to work together and that we’re on the funnel to a smarter, easier future.
Google, one of the biggest tech companies in the world, has been at the forefront of the AI movement, offering solutions and platforms to expand the possibilities of what AI can enable. One particular suite of models, called Gemini, serves as another demonstration of Google’s commitment to advancing AI. Trained to provide machine learning for a suite of services that includes more sophisticated image generation and speech synthesis, Google’s Gemini also provides the framework for the new Opera.
Opera is also perhaps the most popular Chromium-based browser not pre-installed on devices, and the second browser to be widely used after Google Chrome. It points to a new era where Opera users across the globe will start to benefit from the Google Gemini AI superpower, to enrich the Opera Aria browser AI. Google and Opera unite to push the browser technology to the next level.
The collaboration aims to add Opera’s AI capabilities to Google’s Gemini’s advanced models, including the Imagen 2 model that can generate images, and a complex text-to-audio model for human-sounding speech synthesis. The result will be a clear step toward enhancing Opera’s operability by making more everyday tasks into interactions.
What this means is that we got a tiny window of time into what Opera One Developer can do, and it is impressive. If you want to go ahead and try out Google Gemini for free, then Developer is where to go to generate images, and our AI-powered text-to-speech conversation.
Opera and Google working together to adopt a new protocol such as Gemini is about more than just technical improvement – more than Opera going in the direction of the most advanced tech or Google tipping the balance of the wider technical world towards AI futures.
This partnership is about much more than making a browser smarter, though arguably it does that too. It’s about demonstrating the possibilities of AI as it creates entirely new styles of interaction between users and the services they use. The Opera company is admitting Google’s tech to its inner sanctum, and the algorithm’s influence will have knock-on effects for other apps across the Opera portfolio – and potentially the whole industry. The next wave of Babel Fish will involve users interacting with much more than just web-pages.
We are on the cutting edge of something amazing when an opera company and a search engine can collaborate on Gemini. It feels like we are envisioning a new kind of digital world — in which AI is not just a tool, but the technology by which we make a whole digital space that much smarter, more responsive, adaptive — to our thinking and needs. I envision a future where we browse the web in a much smarter way, where the technology and our own ingenuity conspire to make the stuff of science fiction just a little less fictional.
And at the very core of it all is one of the world’s foremost tech giants: Google. Which leads the way in AI innovation – the technology that allows systems such as Opera to become a trailblazer, a brave new world that reaches out from the future and touches the present. Gemini is just one of a growing number of Google’s AI projects – but it is proof of how the corridor between the world of tomorrow and today is being opened still further by this pioneering company, with a vision of a world transformed by technology.
Overall, there’s no question that it’s a significant one, especially since Opera has decided to use Gemini technology developed by Google to power its new AI components. In this sense, the partnership is a perfect illustration of what teamwork can do to shape the future of computer-mediated interactions – and very likely the start of a bright new era of human-computer interaction. As we’re be thrown into the new, muddled online world, initiatives like this act as a glimmer of hope showing the potential of artificial intelligence, and what one can hope it will achieve once giants like Opera and Google team up for a common cause.
