'Goose,' which Google introduced for employees this time, is based on Gemini , which was released in February 2024 as a successor to Bard, and was trained using engineering know-how that Google has cultivated over 25 years. It's an AI model.

Google said in an internal document about Goose that it will 'support new features such as answering questions about Google-specific technology, writing code using our in-house technology stack , and editing code based on natural language prompts.' I explained.

The introduction of AI models is aimed at streamlining internal operations, which Google is promoting. As part of this effort, Google has laid off thousands of people and reorganized many departments over the year starting in 2023.

In addition, Ruth Porat, chief financial officer of Google and its parent company Alphabet,

stated in the fourth quarter of 2023 that, ``We will control the increase in expenses by streamlining operations across Alphabet through the use of AI.'' He talked about his plan to introduce AI.

The introduction of Goose is reportedly part of Google's 'plan to introduce AI into every step of the product development process,' and the introduction of AI within Google will continue to evolve. This is the outlook.

Google is working to spread AI not only internally but also externally, and announced in February 2024 that it would invest 25 million euros (approximately 4 billion yen) in AI skill education in Europe.

Meanwhile, Gemini, the AI model underlying Goose, has generated false statistics about the 2024 Super Bowl, reigniting concerns about AI reliability.

Regarding the introduction of Goose, IT news site Cryptopolitan said, ``By deploying advanced tools like Goose to its employees, Google is establishing a new standard for AI integration in software development. As Google continues to expand its AI initiatives globally, the impact of these technologies on productivity, efficiency, and innovation is expected to grow, leading Google to lead the development and application of AI. It underlines our commitment as a large technology company.'
