  1. Google is introducing generative AI to its Maps application, initially rolling out the feature to select Local Guides in the US. The generative AI feature allows users to ask for information about places using natural language, and Google's large-language models will analyze the Maps database to provide relevant answers.

    This closed beta phase with Local Guides aims to gather insights and feedback to refine the feature before a wider release. Users can ask specific questions, such as "places with a vintage vibe in San Francisco," and receive detailed information with photos, ratings, and reviews from the Maps community.
