Good morning, human brains, and welcome back to your daily munch of AI news.
Here’s what’s on the menu today:
Google Chrome’s AI. Please or tease? 🫢 💻
Google adds 3 new AI features to Google Chrome.
Translate your video’s audio like a boss👂 🌈
ElevenLabs launched Dubbing Studio across 29 languages.
1, 2, cha cha cha 💃🕺
Google unveiled Lumiere, a text-to-video model for motion.
MAIN COURSE
Google Chrome gets good, son 🫢 💻
Last month, we reported on Google’s highly anticipated AI model, Gemini. We went over its controversial demo, model sizes, and more.
A couple of days later, we covered Google Gemini again. It got wrecked in multiple benchmarks by a GPT 4 prompting method.
Then a week later, we covered Google’s text-to-image model, Imagen 2. It announced its general availability with API access for developers.
A couple of days later, we reported on Google’s VideoPoet. It’s a powerful, new video generation model that’s context-aware.
More goo-goo, gaga?
Indeed. On Tuesday, Google announced 3 new AI features for Chrome. It added Tab Organizer, Customize Chrome, and Help Me Write to its web browser.
Tab Organizer, you say?
It allows you to group similar tabs automatically to reduce tab overload. It analyzes page content and suggests tab groups for tasks like travel planning, research, shopping, and more.
Sweet. What’s Customize Chrome?
It allows you to generate custom browser themes with text prompts. You can create unique themes to add personalization based on mood, style, colors, and more without needing graphic design skills.
What’s the other one? I forgot.
Help Me Write. It helps you compose messages by generating text from a prompt, like ChatGPT. The goal is to keep you in your workflow so you don’t have to switch to an external chatbot for writing assistance.
I’m pumped, how do I activate these features?
You can’t yet. Google claims the Tab Organizer and Theme Generator should arrive in the next few days. Help Me Write won’t be available until next month.

A LITTLE SOMETHING EXTRA
Come on baby, do the Google motion 💃🕺
Speak of the devil. 😈
Yesterday, Google announced a new text-to-video model, Lumiere. It generates videos with realistic, versatile motion with a single prompt.
What can I do with it?
You can transform still images into videos, animate video regions with text prompts, transfer styles from one video into another, mimic cinematic motion effects, and more.
What’s different about it?
It produces smooth camera movements and intricate object animations over several seconds. It allegedly excels where traditional models fall short in handling fast and repetitive motions.
Sounds dope. How can I use it?
You can’t yet.
