As the weekend kicks off, I wanted to share a fun activity you can do at home with your family. An AR Scavenger Hunt with 28 of our favorite animals, powered by Google Lens!

Can’t find your friend who’s “standing right by the tree?” Next time someone shares their location with you, Live View will help you get to them more easily. Available soon on Android and iOS.

Google's Project Starline is a wild concept that shows photo-realistic, 3D representations of your colleagues over video conference, no headset required. And I had the chance to try it earlier this month wired.com/story/google-p…

Lots of new AR goodness at Google I/O today → • 3B Lens queries / month • Simone Biles and other athletes in AR in Search • Lens for translation + education • Google Maps Live View "explore" mode + 100 countries + indoors • Search inside screenshots with Lens

This is Project Starline. Years in the making, it works like a magic window, bringing you together with friends, family, and coworkers, even when you're cities (or countries) apart. blog.google/technology/res…

This was hands-down one of the coolest demos I've ever seen. Maybe *the* coolest because it’s so natural — and obvious that this is the future way of immersive remote communication. You really feel like you’re in the room with the other person. It’s wild. wired.com/story/google-p…

So good to be back. And hard to believe it has been 1,098 days since we were last here at Shoreline.

I finally got to try Google’s Project Starline, which is being tested in some real-world offices. Life-size holographic light field chat vs VR with realistic avatars had a very different feel…oddly, comforting? cnet.com/tech/computing…

I’m excited to share what Bret Taylor and I have been working on: Sierra. Sierra is the conversational AI platform for businesses. We enable companies of all shapes and sizes to elevate their customer experience with AI. sierra.ai/news/introduci…

Just as every company has a website, soon every company will have its own AI agent. What are AI agents and how do they work? For the curious, we wrote The Guide to AI Agents. sierra.ai/news/ai-agents…

AI agents represent a new kind of software that demands a new approach to development. At Sierra, we've created what we term the 'Agent Development Life Cycle'—a set of tools and methodologies for building, testing, and maintaining agents that are sophisticated and trustworthy.

Excited to release 𝜏-bench (TAU for Tool-Agent-User ⚒️-🤖-🧑), a new benchmark to evaluate AI agents' performance and reliability in real-world settings with dynamic user and tool interaction. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2406.12045, Blog: sierra.ai/blog/benchmark…

Had a great time talking about all things Sierra and AI agents with Ravi Gupta and Pat Grady on Sequoia Capital's Training Data podcast. youtube.com/watch?v=RAZFDY…

Agents are only as useful as they are reliable. With Sierra's 𝜏-bench, you can now measure that reliability. The good news is that model performance is improving. What's less obvious is that even the most capable models still struggle with complex tasks. Huge opportunity ahead

What stands out about minted isn't just their beautiful products—it's how AI has brought that same eye for quality to their customer experience. Proud to see Sierra's platform help a great brand create memorable moments for their customers: sierra.ai/blog/ai-agents…

Like all great products, the best agents are the product of many teams working together — some technical, some non-technical. Sierra’s Agent OS uniquely supports both no code and programmatic agent development, enabling customer experience and engineering teams alike to build

Today we announced a set of major advances to our agent benchmark, 𝜏-bench. This new benchmark, 𝜏², introduces the notion of "dual control", where AI agents are challenged not just to reason and act, but to coordinate, guide, and assist a user in achieving a shared objective.
