Circle to Search is the latest in Google’s stable of AI and machine learning based features for end users on their smartphones that are making such interactions ever more human.
Those of you who caught Samsung’s Unpacked event two days ago would have seen a Google vice president of search coming up on stage to describe a new AI feature on the latest Galaxy phone, developed by Google.
Google calls it ‘Circle to Search’, and that’s exactly what it is. See something you’re browsing that you want to know more about? Well, now just circle it, and you’ll get what the geeks would call multi-modal search results, meaning across text, images and so on.
