anywhere from oakland over into san francisco. 70s in the heart of redwood city, 50s near half moon bay now the more east we go the war markets inevitably right, all of our michael michael comments anywhere from livermore up into antioco to warm up into the 80s as that afternoon with 80s expected down year lose scotus now as we take a look at the next 7 days, there's not too much change is in the forecast for us, at least when it comes to our daytime highs. we slowly cool down into the low 70s heading into this weekend forecast. but it's still 70s. partly cloudy skies until next monday and tuesday were high pressure starts building it again. these are 2 to warm up and we'll see sunnier skies all throughout our inland areas. especially in this morning hours, meaning beautiful sunrise is around the corner. but if you live closer to the bay, we're going to hold on tight to those. partly cloudy skies into next week and 60s all week long, with mild conditions lasting into this weekend forecast. >gianna>thank you, jess. a i developers. have done it again one day after chat, gpt you showed off innovations. google is showing off its latest ai
9:15 am
plans at its developer conference. we have the highlights coming up next. and wired wednesday. and catchers on the cove and a time honored tradition on the water for baseball lovers. how kayakers
9:16 am
9:17 am
>gianna>and welcome back. it's
9:18 am
wired wednesday. lots to go. over. and google's ai developer conference specifically new features and how they're implementing. many of them in our apps or their apps, so join us to break it. all down is abrar al he t seen it producer and video host welcome nice to see you. >live>thank you for having me. i appreciate >gianna>it. ok, so there is a lot to go over with and talk about when it comes to google searches. the tech giant says their new gemini model is going to really give overviews in response to whatever you search. so how is this going to look for users? >live>this will essentially change what you see when you use google search because what you're used to seeing as a list of links and you go through those legs what this will do is it will essentially create this. ai summary. so it'll kind of pull from different sources create this little recap at the top to kind of pull it all together. that means less work if you're searching because it kind of aggregate everything, but then that leads to questions i will people still click on the links, right will still lead to those links, so that's kind of how bad is changing. >gianna>so a little less clutter, though, which is probably easier to kind of look at google also unveiled their new ai assistant. project, astra. how does astro work in comparison to other ai
9:19 am
assistance? things like syria and alexa? >live>astra's kind of the next generation of that ai assistant, right? it's it's being billed as an ai agent, because what it can do is it can pull from the context around you. so during the demo that they showed they held up this phone and using the camera they could ask questions like described the neighborhood that i'm in and make it the you know after could identify what area it was, or they ask, do you remember where i left my glasses? and it remembered where the person had left their glasses. so it kind of pulls from from all the context around. you can show it recipes and say, hey, what can i make? you can show ingredients rather and say, what recipe could i make with these ingredients? >gianna>i can't imagine what a game changer this is going to be for a lot of things not just everyday cooking or just looking something up like we were talking about going to the store and looking up an item. could you also use it as a shopping enhancement? >live>absolutely. so the idea here is with all with, you know, gemini in general. the idea is to make it easier to shop and plan and, um, essentially used these tools. to make your life easier and really work as your assistant. >gianna>i could use this. >live>this
9:20 am
>>might work very well >live>in my >gianna>life, all right, along with all the other announcements, google had time to fit in a new video. generation model. it's called video. okay, so we're really getting into a part of a i that can create incredible cinematic videos through just text. tell us a little bit. how this works. >live>unsettle. unsettling and miraculous all at once. so what it does is it uses text or images or videos to kind of create these very, very high. quality. cinematic style videos and that shows people and animals and objects move. very realistically. this is right now only open to a select group of creators but will be rolling out in the near future to more people, but this is this is really where we see a i flex and say, look at all this really realistic stuff that we can create. >gianna>so this is an open to a lot of people to use right now, but for people who like me work in the industry broadcasting or this was a big issue for a lot of people in the movie. industry and what this means for their job. what are you hearing in regards to that? >live>there is a little bit of discomfort because of that, right? and so i think a lot of creatives are concerned about a
9:21 am
i in general, but especially when it comes to something that looks as realistic as this, so i'm sure we're going to see more conversations. going forward about how to make sure this isn't you know, displacing people in the coming years. >gianna>is there a timeline a bar on something like this that would be ruled out for most people to use. >live>if i were to guess google is probably going to be very careful about when they start to roll this out to the public because of all of those concerns, so i wouldn't expect him in the next few months, but perhaps over the next couple of years we'll see this kind of become available to the general >gianna>public. will take that personal assistant health. >live>yahoo's >>that >>for sure. >gianna>all right. thank you so much for that information. we appreciate it. >live>thank you for having >gianna>me. well, time now for your money watch headlines, the federal reserve just released its april consumer price index report, and it shows inflation ease with consumer prices jumping 3.4%. that's roughly about what economists were expecting. so food prices were pretty flat in april compared to march, but 1 of the biggest burdens on inflation comes from vehicles. the combined index for both used and new cars is
