Alphabet CEO: Search uses Gemini's intelligence, and grounds it with what it knows about the world

Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai joins CNBC's Deirdre Bosa at Google I/O developer conference to talk its new AI rollout, project Astra, its response to OpenAI's search competitor and more.

One method to resolve hallucination is to use Search to double-check against sources.

I think "grounding" is really the keyword here. Even if OpenAI is currently beating Google in the gen AI space, Google still has the upper hand (by far) when it comes to indexing and thus retrieving web content.

Google has a lot of catching up to do. Most of the developments are already being done by OpenAI, Microsoft and Perplexity.
