Original subtitles

person: Have you ever wondered what the first question was?

Like, the first one ever asked?

Was it, "Can we eat this?"

Or "Can that eat us?"

Or was it, "Where did Steve go?"

Whatever it was, it must have led to more questions like,

"What if we grew food?"

"Could we store food?"

A special shout-out to the first person to ask, "Can I milk that?"

And then, I guess we could move on to bigger questions like,

can we count things?

Time things?

What exactly is this thing?

person: I need to mull this over...

person: Okay. Probably don't have time for that.

Earhart.

Jemison.

Kahlo.

A "who" led to a "where"

that became a "when," a "what," and a "why."

Burning questions,

leading questions,

and questions that question.

I mean, why can't we tickle ourselves?

And why doesn't anyone shower anymore?

I mean, really?

But even when we found a world full of answers,

it led to an ever-expanding universe full of new questions,

which, when you think about it, begs the question:

were we ever really just looking for answers?

Or were we waiting to see where a question would take us next?

But I don't know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.

[Every answer leads to a new question]

[Search On]

Prabhakar: Welcome, everyone.

We're coming to you live from Search On.

I hope you and your loved ones are staying safe.

This is our second annual Search On,

and we're excited to talk about the future of information,

and how we search for it.

Since the beginning,

people have had a natural human curiosity.

And it's this never-ending search for information

that leads to knowledge, creates opportunity,

and drives progress.

Over time, technology has played a critical role

in helping us understand how to unlock that information.

Now, as we look ahead,

significant advances in AI are completely transforming

how people connect and engage with information,

and with it, changing the world for the better.

Since day one, Google's mission has been to organize the world's information

and make it universally accessible and useful.

Today, you can learn helpful, new skills without formal education.

Anyone can start a home business

and instantly connect to billions of potential customers.

And students, parents, and entrepreneurs

all have the world's insights at their fingertips.

We make all of this possible

by helping you tap into the endless knowledge

of creators, publishers, and businesses

from across the web, and around the world.

In fact, every day,

we connect people to well over 100 million different websites

and millions of businesses,

from large retailers to the local shops down the street.

And over the past year,

we've sent more traffic to the open web than any year prior.

This is a trend that has continued every year since Google was first created.

We're relentless in our quest to ensure that you have access

to the most useful information possible.

That means making Google radically more natural and intuitive,

helping you unlock more insights than ever before.

Today, I'm excited to share how AI is fundamentally transforming

the next generation of search experiences.

We'll be showing you how we are applying our MUM technology

to revolutionize the way you engage with information,

redesigning the Google Search page

to make it easier for you to explore information in new ways,

helping you shop with more choice than ever

from merchants large and small,

continuing to deliver the highest quality information,

and new tools to evaluate the credibility of what you find online.

Across all of this, one thing holds truer than ever:

open access to information empowers people and changes lives.

But before we talk about how we are making information

more helpful in your daily lives,

let's first discuss how technology can help us tackle global challenges.

In our quest to make information as useful as possible to you,

we're able to provide insights

that can even have a meaningful impact during moments of crisis.

Around the world,

natural disasters disrupt lives and displace communities.

For example,

a growing number of people worldwide have experienced firsthand

the devastating impact of wildfires.

Last year, we launched a wildfire boundary map in Google Search and Maps

to help people in the U.S. monitor nearby wildfires.

Using satellite data and Google's advanced mapping technologies,

we give people near real-time information in critical moments,

like knowing where blaze is underway so they can avoid it.

Today, we're announcing a new wildfire layer overlaid directly on Google Maps

so you can better visualize the location and size

of major wildfires around the world,

along with quick links to local resources.

When available, you can also see details about the fire,

such as its containment, how many acres have burned,

and when all of this information was last reported.

In addition to providing critical insights in times of crisis,

AI is also helping communities tackle the complexities of climate change.

This includes extreme temperatures,

which are causing public health concerns in cities around the world.

For example, did you know that street temperatures can be

as much as seven degrees Fahrenheit higher in cities than in outlying areas?

This can be the difference between a hot day and a dangerous one.

Something as simple as planting trees

can help lower street temperatures and improve quality of life,

yet many cities don't have the resources or data

to understand where to plant new trees.

That's why we launched Tree Canopy Insights.

We use aerial imagery, public data, and specialized tree-detection AI

to give cities insight on where they could plant more trees

to tackle these challenges.

Tree Canopy Insights is already in 15 U.S. cities,

and we're expanding it to 100 more in the coming months.

We also plan to scale it worldwide next year

as part of our commitment to help more places respond to climate change.

These innovations are a few of the ways we're using technology

to unlock new insights

to help address challenges that affect people around the world,

whether it's tracking nearby wildfires

or advising local cities on where to plant trees.

But we're also using AI to help you find answers to your everyday questions,

and even decide what to search for next.

In fact, my team and I spend a great deal of time working to provide

high-quality answers to questions that haven't even been asked yet.

To share an update on how we've applied MUM to these challenges,

here's Pandu.

Pandu: Thanks, Prabhakar.

As Prabhakar said, our investments in AI help us deeply understand information--

not just text on web pages, but in the real world around us.

People rely on language, images, videos, and context

to make sense of information.

But this is a huge challenge for computers.

Of course, AI models today can know a lot of things like:

this is a description of a lion,

this is a photo of a lion,

and this is the sound a lion makes.

But to really grasp what a lion is,

you need to understand the relationship between all of this information,

and then some,

like the notion that while a lion is a cat,

that doesn't make it a good pet.

And that's what makes MUM revolutionary.

It's one of our first AI models that is truly multimodal,

which means it can simultaneously understand information

across a wide range of formats,

like text, images, and video.

MUM can also draw implicit connections

between concepts, topics, and ideas about the world around us.

When you put these two things together,

you can build some pretty remarkable experiences.

So let's take a look at how we're experimenting with MUM

so that you will be able to search in entirely ways in the future.

Say I really like the pattern on this shirt

that my colleague, Matias, is wearing in this photo.

While it looks great on him,

I'm not sure it would-- that it would go on me.

I think, for me, a bold pattern like this would be much better on socks.

Now, it would be difficult to describe this exact pattern in a search box.

I could try "white Victorian floral socks,"

but that might not be how others describe this pattern.

With Google Lens,

you can already "search what you see" with your camera or a picture.

With this upcoming multimodal update,

Google Lens can now combine visual and text input

to understand exactly what you want.

In the coming months,

when I take a screenshot of this shirt and ask for socks with this pattern,

I'll get recommendations for stores, from local shops to large chains,

that carry similar looking socks,

along with other related content from across the web.

Let's see this in action with a live demo.

Always a risky proposition!

So let's start by firing up Lens.

And you can see I have a saved screenshot of Matias in his shirt.

Lens does its thing by showing me shirts like Matias' shirt from around the web.

And then, I provided additional information about what I actually want,

which is "socks with...

this...pattern."

And ta-da!

You can see that Lens found me socks from around the web

with a pattern like Matias's.

And you can go to any of those stores and buy them for yourselves.

And, in fact, that's exactly what I've done here

for the occasion.

So that was pretty cool.

But what happens if I have a question that's more complex,

like when my bicycle stops shifting gears?

I can see something is off with the mechanism at the back,

but I don't have the words to describe the situation.

Calling the mechanism "the gear thingamajig" just might not work.

Soon you'll be able to point your camera and ask Google, "How do I fix this?"

We'll show you everything you need to get your bike back on the trail.

MUM's advanced multimodal understanding

can simultaneously identify the part in the image

based on similar images from across the web

and also understand the intent behind your question to help you solve it.

Let's see this in action.

So, let's see.

So here we are with Lens again.

This time, I'm going to open up the camera

and come and take a picture of this rear mechanism.

Lens, again, finds me images from across the web, similar images.

And now, I can type what I actually want,

which is "how to fix."

And there you go.

In this case, Google could tell it's a problem with the derailleur.

So, oh, that's what it's called.

It can then point you to helpful information on how to fix it

from a variety of videos, blogs, forums, and websites.

Now, MUM is one of the first AI models

that's able to solve these types of complex, multimodal questions.

We're actively testing new capabilities like this

and look forward to bringing them to life next year.

Now, you might be asking,

"Why can't I try MUM and Lens today if it's already working in these demos?"

Part of the reason is that we still have some work left to do.

But really, it's because rigorous testing and evaluation

is a crucial part of every new AI model that we deploy

and every feature we launch.

We look for quality gains and losses

and examine the impact on both a broad set of queries and specialized slices

to seek out any concerning patterns.

Only after we've thoroughly analyzed the impact do we make the change.

These promising advances in AI

will dramatically improve our ability to understand information

and revolutionize the way people search in the future.

Next, we'll take a look at how this is coming to life right in Google Search.

person: Picture this.

You've spending a lot of time at home lately,

and that broken bathroom tile, it's about to break you.

So you go to Google.

This isn't a "one answer renovates all" situation.

You've got questions like,

"What is a pedestal sink?"

"Where can I buy mermaid tiles?"

"Design tips for a small space."

"Shower or tub?"

"What's grout?"

"Do I need grout?"

"How do I get grout out of my hair?"

In the end, what makes Google helpful

is that it helps you explore complex topics,

like, "What are the most relaxing scented candles

for a soak in my freshly grouted corner tub?"

Finally.

Elizabeth: Many of the things we come to search for don't have a single answer.

In fact, behind every query, there are so many questions.

Like, when you're planning a road trip,

do you need to tune up your car before you go?

How far ahead do you need to book campsites?

And what are some tips to packing light?

Or if you're trying to pick a major in college,

what do you need to know?

How do you choose what's right for you?

And what could help you land your dream job?

One way to figure these things out would be to ask someone you know

who can share their experience.

But what if you just don't know anyone you can turn to?

With advancements like MUM,

we're helping you more easily tap into the wisdom of the world,

from everyday people to content creators to experts in their field.

And today, I'm so excited to show you how we're redesigning Google Search

to help you explore the many questions behind your queries

in more intuitive ways,

whether you want to wrap your head around something new

or you're browsing for visual inspiration.

So let's take a look.

Lately, I've been thinking about doing a fall craft project with my kids.

I'm intrigued by videos of art made with acrylic paints.

And I've been wondering,

could we actually make something like that?

Where do we even start?

Now, learning about acrylic painting may seem pretty simple,

but actually, people explore over 350 different subtopics about it on Google.

That's a lot.

The first update we'll add to the redesigned search page

in the coming months is "Things to know,"

an overview of different ways to explore a topic

so you can quickly find what's best for you.

So if you're a beginner searching for "acrylic painting,"

you'll see the step-by-step instructions and what materials you'd need.

Or if you're a more experienced artist,

you can get inspired with new techniques to try.

In the future, by applying deeper information understanding with MUM,

Google can help you discover new insights.

For example, you can make acrylic paintings

with things you can find around your house.

Finally, something to do with all those old kitchen sponges.

The second update is making it easier to refine or broaden your search,

which helps you uncover new and exciting angles along the way.

As you explore acrylic painting,

you'll be able to zoom in with "Refine the search"

and dive into specific techniques, like puddle pouring,

which sounds messy, but really, really cool.

You can also zoom out with "Broaden this search"

to help you see more related topics,

like other ways to paint or famous painters.

These new features are only possible

thanks to Google's advanced topic understanding.

Now you can follow your curiosity wherever it takes you

and discover creators and publishers along the way

that you didn't even know existed.

So we just talked about how we're helping you explore new topics

more intuitively on Google,

but sometimes, you just don't know what you want until you see it.

That's why our third update makes it easy to browse the search page

for more visual inspiration.

Let's say you're looking for the perfect puddle-pouring design

that's straightforward to make,

but exciting enough to earn that spot in your living room.

With this new improvement,

we're transforming the search page into an endless stream of visual ideas.

Now, you can visually browse the full range of images,

articles, and videos from across the web to find the right design just for you.

You can try this out today

by searching for all kinds of different ideas on your phone,

things as different as "Halloween decor" to "vertical gardening."

When it comes to exploring a new topic,

another way to visually understand information is by watching videos.

People around the world are creating and watching content

about nearly every topic imaginable.

With Google's deep understanding,

we can help you get even more insight and inspiration

from the videos you watch.

We already pinpoint the key moments in video

so you can find the content you're interested in.

And with our fourth improvement to Search called "Related topics,"

we're making it even easier to explore information in videos.

[Refine or broaden More visual inspiration Related topics for videos]

Let's take a look at this new experience with my favorite flightless bird,

the macaroni penguin,

which combines my love of penguins and pasta.

When I search for "macaroni penguins" and tap into a video like this one,

I'm hooked.

As I watch and discover more about these adorable birds,

I just want to learn more.

With this new feature, you'll see a list of topics in the video.

And since we're applying MUM,

we can identify what's referenced in the video,

even if it's not explicitly mentioned by name.

For instance, the words "macaroni penguin's life story,"

they aren't said anywhere in this video,

nor are they written in the video's description.

But the video contains information about the daily trials and tribulations

of being a macaroni penguin,

like having to dodge those hungry seals

or find their family amongst hundreds of other penguins.

Only our advanced topic understanding with MUM can figure out

that these details make up the life story of this amazing animal.

Now, the things you want to know more about are just a tap away.

This experience is rolling out for YouTube videos on Search

in the coming weeks.

And we're exploring ways for creators and publishers to opt in down the road.

All of these improvements are just a glimpse

into how we're redesigning Search for the future

to help you explore the questions behind all your queries

in more intuitive and visual ways.

This is especially valuable

when you're looking to discover the right products for you.

Up next, we'll share how we're reimagining

the shopping experience on Google.

person: The year is 1993,

and legend has it that one of the first e-commerce purchases

is about to take place:

A pepperoni pizza with mushrooms and extra cheese.

Turns out, that craving for extra mozzarella and mushrooms

was just a precursor to the complex choices we make

when we buy online today.

When we go online to buy a hat,

we don't just want any hat.

We want THE hat.

2021's hottest hat.

The best hat for small heads.

The perfect size, shape, and color.

The hat that will finally make you into a hat person.

Now it's time to make the call on a cravat.

"Cravaht?" Cravat.

Am I saying that right?

Matt: Not long ago, it would have seemed odd

to buy sneakers or glasses without trying them on first.

These days, we research and buy all kinds of things online.

For example,

as I've gone through a home renovation in the past month,

I bought a dog bed for Pearl,

a stand-up desk,

and even our sofa online.

The web has given us an endless sea of options to choose from.

All of this choice is empowering, but it's hard to know where to start.

That's why we've been relentlessly focused

on organizing all of these options

and making it easier to find exactly what you're looking for.

Today, I'm excited to share new ways to shop with Google

in moments of inspiration,

exploration,

or when you're ready to make a purchase.

Let's start with inspiration,

which can strike in the most unexpected moments.

Sometimes you'll stumble upon that perfect find,

like seeing an awesome design on the base of a snowboard,

but you can't figure out where to get it.

To make it easier to shop at the moment of inspiration,

we're making the products you see online instantly shoppable

with Google Lens.

Say you're redecorating

and are browsing Apartment Therapy for ideas.

Soon, you'll see a new button in the Google app on your iPhone

to make all images on the page instantly searchable.

So finding this lamp, or that chair, or ones like it

takes just one tap.

There's no need to leave the website you're on.

This is powered by a new machine learning model

that uses on-device processing to recognize products

in as little as 200 milliseconds.

That's literally less than the blink of an eye.

[200 milliseconds to recognize a product]

And to help you in all the places you shop,

we're also bringing Lens to Chrome on your computer

in the coming months.

Just select part of the page you're browsing

to quickly see search results right alongside.

Now, if you're like me,

most of the time when you're shopping, you have a vague idea of what you want

but don't have an exact product or brand in mind.

That's why we're making it easier to window shop

from all of your favorite brands and retailers

right from your Search results.

For example, I want some new hoodies

even though my kids say I'm not cool enough to wear them.

When I search for men's sweatshirts,

I can now explore a visual feed of shoppable options

from well-known labels,

local shops,

fresh new brands,

and everything in between.

As I'm browsing through many colors and styles,

I'll also see recommendations from lifestyle magazines,

blogs, video reviews, and more.

And when I find something I like,

I can click to check out more reviews and ratings

and even compare prices to get the best deal.

This is powered by Google's Shopping Graph--

our comprehensive dataset of over 24 billion product offers

from millions of merchants of all sizes

both online and off.

We're increasing your choices as a shopper

and helping millions of merchants and brands get discovered

during the more than 1 billion times a day

people shop on Google.

When you've explored your options and are ready to make a purchase,

sometimes you'll want to see your choice in person

or simply can't wait for it to be delivered.

That's why we've been working on new ways

to help you see what products are in stores nearby.

Say you need a kid's bike helmet for your family's afternoon ride.

Now you can select the "in stock" filter

to quickly find local stores with kids helmets available.

This is rolling out in the US and 14 more countries starting today.

And if you're looking to check out more of what's on the store's shelves,

you can browse their inventory before heading out.

Showing in-store availability

is especially valuable for small businesses.

It helps them attract new customers

who end up discovering a broader range of what they offer.

Let's take a look at how a local toy store

used Google to showcase their products.

Bella: Um, this one's Ben.

It's a Squishville. They're tiny.

That's the bluebird. I've been trying to get that.

Tank-- Tank the hammerhead shark.

Emily: A squish hunt is when people will go around to the stores

that they know carry Squishmallows,

and they spend lots of time in the aisles

looking for particular ones.

Ana: It became a thing amongst the kids,

and now they search for them

and they know when they're gonna be and where.

We used to travel around everywhere,

and now I just go to Google and search for it.

Emily: With Google search results,

it shows that we most likely have their favorite in stock.

We create a new SKU in our system.

We enter the name and the size.

Um, so "12-inch Charlie."

And Google search results show that Hollypops has that product.

Ana: Now I can see all of the different Squishmallows

that, you know, they have in stock.

It's very easy.

Emily: The system is great.

It will allow us to enter anything and be searchable.

It put me on the map.

It--it caused me to be profitable

for a small business competing against all the other big box stores around.

They can now find me

and get their favorite Squishmallow.

Matt: From toys, to school supplies,

to backyard barbecue gear,

Google can help you quickly find whatever you need

from stores nearby.

Billions of people come to Google every day

to shop, explore,

and learn from the rich information available on the web

and in the world around us.

As they search,

it's critical that they're able to find information that's reliable

while staying safe online.

Let's take a look at how Google Search continues to deliver

high-quality information.

person: "Is it true that" has long been a popular search term on Google,

with common questions including,

"Is it true that you can't sleep if someone is thinking about you?"

and "Is it true that spiders crawl into your mouth at night?"

In 2020,

"is it true that" hit an all-time high.

But the truth is, not everything is so clear-cut.

For many topics,

there's not just a single source of truth.

So you may want to know where it came from,

what others are saying,

and how to find information you can trust.

Because it's worth checking your sources before you book that trip to Italy

to swim with the dolphins in the Venice canals.

Wait, that can't be right.

Danielle: Whether you're looking for facts about the COVID vaccine

or for financial information like how to apply for a loan,

having access to information that is both relevant and credible

is crucial to our daily lives.

People turn to search engines to find information they can trust.

And delivering high-quality results is what has always set Google apart.

But we all understand that misinformation

is a growing challenge in our society.

In the face of this challenge,

we have a steadfast commitment

to deliver the most reliable, fresh,

and helpful information available.

We believe reliability starts from the ground up,

so we've always designed our ranking systems

to prioritize high-quality content.

For critical topics like health,

we elevate information from expert sources

like local authorities

to make sure it's easy for people to find content they can trust.

We also know that people don't just want quick facts.

For many topics,

they want to really understand the information that's out there.

Google Search is already a powerful tool

to help people check the facts and dig deeper.

And to make it easier for you to evaluate

the credibility of information,

We're continuing to invest in more information literacy features

based on research and best practices from experts.

Let's take a look at some of the ways we're doing this.

Earlier this year, we launched a feature called About This Result

which makes it easier to check the source

right on the results page.

By simply tapping the three dots on any search result,

you can find helpful context before you even visit a webpage

like a description of the site

and whether your connection to it is secure.

Since launch, people have used About This Result

more than 400 million times.

And now we're adding even more context to About This Result

with insights that can help you better evaluate and understand

the sources of information you find.

Insights like:

what the site says about itself,

what others are saying about the site,

a link to top news coverage,

and related results about the topic.

And by the way,

if certain information for a website is missing,

we'll highlight that too.

[Google can't find much info on other sites to help you learn more.]

This expansion of About This Result is rolling out in the coming weeks

in English in the United States.

This is just the latest way we're providing important context

right on Search.

From making it easy to spot fact check articles

to offering full coverage for developing news stories,

and even showing content advisories when results are rapidly changing.

We're committed to helping people identify high-quality information

and critically evaluate what they find online.

[Full Coverage Fact check results Content advisories]

We are also working to keep you safe and secure as you search.

We have a responsibility to protect and respect your data.

That's why we never sell your personal information.

Period.

At Google, we keep more people safe online

than anyone else in the world.

We protect you on the web with advanced security

that automatically detects and blocks threats

before they even reach you.

In fact, every day last year,

we blocked 40 billion spammy web pages from ever reaching your search results.

And we've led the industry in adopting security standards

helping to make the internet safer for everyone.

We made HTTPS encryption the default for all searches

and introduced it as a ranking signal for our results.

This helped raise the bar on security

by driving further adoption of this industry standard.

Trusted and secure information is part of the promise we make to you,

and we'll continue to uphold this promise

as we innovate in the future.

This is one of the many ways we're helping to build a better web.

Another is ensuring that all information is easily accessible.

Up next, we'll share more on our commitment

to open access for everyone.

person: Okay, so here's the thing,

no matter what you're looking for,

there's a world of people on Google who can help.

If you want to press flowers,

Spool&Twine will help you live your best cottagecore life.

You're in need of natural tie dye techniques?

Well, Honestcrafts really brings the beets.

When your four-year-old nephew wants a ceiling fan birthday cake,

a baking enthusiast by the name of Doug has a helpful tip about using dowels.

He's a big dowel guy.

And if it doesn't turn out quite how you'd like,

well, then there's always a local bakery to save the day.

Prabhakar: Just as human curiosity will never end,

our work to provide you with the most innovative products

will never cease.

Today, we've talked about the future of information.

It's a future where you'll be able to search

in entirely new and far more natural ways.

This goes beyond the web to the real world.

More than 15 years ago,

we set an ambition to map the entire world,

and we could have never imagined back then

how many lives this would transform.

Today, more than a billion people turn to Google Maps every month,

and it plays a vital role in helping people,

businesses, and communities everywhere be found.

In fact, every month,

we connect people with more than 120 million businesses

that do not have websites

by enabling phone calls,

driving directions,

and local foot traffic.

And we made remote places more accessible,

even capturing the Faroe Islands with "Sheep View."

Not so baaah'd.

On our quest to map the world,

we've learned that open access to information is not universal

nor guaranteed.

For example, having a physical address

is a key enabler of social and economic inclusion.

And yet, several billion people today don't have one,

making it difficult to do things like receive deliveries,

open a bank account, or even apply for a job.

That's why we created Plus Codes,

a free and open-source digital addressing system

to bring internationally usable addresses

to more places around the world.

And over the past six years since the launch,

we've seen how access to easier addressing

can help uplift communities.

Let's take a look.

Norbert: The Navajo Nation is over 27,000 square miles.

Dalene: But we don't have street names.

It's like, "past this rock" or "the Y in a road."

That's how we divide people-- just using landmarks

and guessing on milage.

Susan: We had had several traumatic runs

where we didn't know the address,

and we had not been able to get to the person

in time to help save their life.

Had we gotten there sooner, possibly we could have saved them.

Dalene: The experience I had with my mom--

we couldn't get an ambulance out to where we live,

so my mom lost a whole hour when she had a stroke.

Susan: If dispatch could just say,

"Look at the number on the house and tell me what that number is,"

problem solved.

Norbert: I was attending a Google conference.

One of the presentations was Plus Codes.

It's basically what we've been looking for, you know?

Something easy to use, and it's available for everyone.

[WMFM+5C2, Oljato-Monument Valley]

Dalene: And that's what we're giving out to the community

to address them.

My son put up a Plus Code on social media

to inform people of where a ceremony is gonna take place.

We had people from everywhere--

middle of Arizona, the other end of the reservation--

show up.

Norbert: Lot of people are entrepreneurs.

They want to get businesses started, but it's really hard to get an address.

Dalene: I want my people to be visible.

This is our home.

Prabhakar: To date, we've brought Plus Codes

to over 20 million existing locations on Google Maps

that didn't have a useable address,

including schools and healthcare facilities.

And today, we're proud to introduce Address Maker,

a free smartphone app that helps governments and nonprofits

quickly create addresses for entire towns or villages.

This new tool shortens a process that used to take years

down to as little as a few weeks.

We recently partnered with government entities

in The Gambia and Kenya,

and are also working with nonprofits in India,

South Africa, and the US.

We're excited to partner with more governments and organizations

in the future

and see how they will use this technology

to create new opportunities for people.

I hope you've seen today how information has the power to transform our lives

in ways big and small.

And our approach to innovation will always, always be in service

of making information more useful to you.

Innovations like MUM are pushing the boundaries

of how helpful a search engine can be.

A redesigned Google Search page

makes it possible to explore information in new ways.

Comprehensive and intuitive shopping experiences

give you more choice than ever before.

And high-quality information and tools like About This Result

empower you to make more informed choices

about the content you consume.

We're only scratching the surface of what's possible.

Never before has access to information played such a pivotal role in society.

And I hope you're inspired by the many new ways

technology will unlock opportunities for people

no matter who they are, what they search,

or where their next question takes them.

Thanks for tuning in...

and Search On.

[So until next time]

Elizabeth: Top puddle pour ideas.

Prabhakar: Not even remotely an artist.

Danielle: Like a rain puddle?

Elizabeth: No--

Pandu: Best men's hoodie tips.

Elizabeth: Oh, I'm not good with styles.

Matt: Loose is good.

Danielle: Always black.

Prabhakar: Short drawstrings.

Pandu: We don't do that.

Elizabeth: How do I fix this?

Danielle: Uh-- Matt: Oof.

Pandu: Uh...

Danielle: It needs wheels.

Elizabeth: There's no handlebars.

Prabhakar: Ask someone who knows what they're doing.

Danielle: Is there life out there?

Elizabeth: I think all of our guesses would be wrong.

Pandu: What happened here, it could happen there.

Matt: So you're saying there's a chance.
