Summary | Google is always after the most exciting innovations. Their main focus at the moment is on artificial intelligence assistants which can be operated conversationally. Because they are voice-activated, issues with privacy come up: is Google's AI assistant constantly listening in? Google is working on solutions for making privacy settings as customizable as possible. Another big focus is translation. Google translate can already operate in 100 languages and now users can even scan, say a restaurant menu, and get it translated right away.
