Congratulations to our team for being recognized in the 2025 PCMag Technical Excellence Awards for our breakthrough work using Willow to solve a long-established challenge for quantum error correction, namely reducing errors exponentially as more qubits are added. This opens up the possibility for quantum computers to solve-real world issues that currently aren’t possible with classic computers. Learn more ↓ https://goo.gle/3JOGxlS

Today, we introduce Nested Learning, a groundbreaking approach to machine learning that redefines how we view and design AI models. By treating ML architecture and optimization as interconnected, multi-level learning problems, Nested Learning offers a new dimension for building more capable AI. This paradigm helps address critical challenges like "catastrophic forgetting", enabling models to continually acquire new knowledge without sacrificing old proficiencies. Our proof-of-concept model, Hope, is built on a self-modifying architecture and demonstrates superior performance in language modeling and long-context memory management.

Learn about Google’s approach to building AI to help improve learning outcomes for everyone in this new paper, co-authored by Yossi Matias, our VP and Head of Google Research ↓
Today, we introduce our position paper “AI and the Future of Learning”, outlining Google’s approach to building AI to help improve learning outcomes for everyone. 📄 Our core focus at Google Research is driving breakthrough research and bridging fundamental scientific advancement into tangible solutions that address critical global needs. This is the magic cycle of research in action. This paper looks at how Google is leveraging its world leadership in machine learning to responsibly enable AI for learning. Our approach is grounded in pedagogical principles and the very best of learning science. 📄 Customized Learning at Scale: Google is actively developing AI models like Gemini, guided by our LearnLM efforts, to create deeply personalized teaching and tutoring experiences at scale. This shifts learning from passive consumption to active, deep understanding for everyone. 📄 Empowering Educators: AI is designed to serve as a powerful teaching assistant, alleviating administrative tasks and freeing up teachers' time for the essential human aspects of the job: mentoring, inspiring curiosity, and fostering connections. 📄 Addressing Critical Challenges: AI presents an immense opportunity to reduce barriers to quality education and help unlock human potential globally. However, realizing this requires confronting risks like "metacognitive laziness" and ensuring equal access, designing tools that promote critical thinking, not replace it. 📄 Commitment to Collaboration: To realize this vision, we remain committed to a research and evidence-based approach, involving continuous collaboration with educators and experts. The greatest potential of AI is helping everyone reach theirs, with AI as an amplifier of human ingenuity. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/dHetuCnJ Blog announcement: https://lnkd.in/d4UEEsUX

Researchers at Google are using AI to build a global map of species, from animals to plants to fungi. These maps, powered by a custom complex deep learning architecture based on Graph Neural Networks, will help scientists, policymakers, and conservationists identify critical habitats, maximizing resource efficiency and protecting the areas that need it most. To protect life on Earth, we first need to know where to find it.
