DeepMind's Allan Dafoe, Director of Frontier Safety and Governance, is actively involved in shaping the future of AI governance. Dafoe is addressing the challenges of evaluating AI capabilities, understanding structural risks, and navigating the complexities of governing AI technologies. His work focuses on ensuring AI's responsible development and deployment, especially as AI transforms sectors like education, healthcare, and sustainability, while mitigating potential risks through necessary safety measures.
Google is also prepping its Gemini AI model to take actions within apps, potentially revolutionizing how users interact with their devices. This development, which involves a new API in Android 16 called "app functions," aims to give Gemini agent-like abilities to perform tasks inside applications. For example, users might be able to order food from a local restaurant using Gemini without directly opening the restaurant's app. This capability could make AI assistants significantly more useful.
