@newsfromgoogle.bsky.social@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialUnder live physician oversight: • 0 conversations triggered a clinical safety stop • 90% of cases matched the clinician's final diagnosis within AMIE's differential list • Nearly 60% of surveyed clinicians reported that reviewing the information provided by AMIE may have changed their behavior
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialGoogle and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center tested AMIE, our experimental conversational AI, with 100 urgent care patients under live physician supervision.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.social@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialWe sat down with Googlers behind our latest research project to learn how our new ultrasound technology works and what our latest research on it could mean for the future of global maternal healthcare.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialBy pairing planetary intelligence with local expertise, we’re working alongside health leaders to build proactive, data-driven tools to better protect communities worldwide. Learn more about our latest research. goo.gle/4rR4VF6
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialNew research shows how Google Earth AI can help public health teams close critical data lags and address crises faster. For example, in the DRC, the World Health Organization’s Regional Office for Africa was able to identify 45,500+ people at risk for Ebola in minutes rather than weeks.

@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialFor over a decade, we’ve been exploring how to use AI and machine learning to detect and model the spread of early-stage wildfires.
In our latest Ask a Scientist installment, we sat down with a Google researcher to understand how our detection technology works and where it’s going.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialLearn more about our newest contrail avoidance trial. goo.gle/4gI6qS8
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialThe system brings together AI predictions, satellite imagery, and advanced weather intelligence to pinpoint these contrail-forming zones in advance, allowing dispatchers and pilots to plan slight altitude shifts around them without interrupting standard cockpit workflows.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialWe’re partnering with Cathay Pacific to test our AI-powered contrail mitigation tech on ultra-long-haul flights. In early trials across 80 flights, we estimate contrail-avoidance routes cut their warming impact by ~40%.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialWe're making AlphaGenome Atlas free and available to the scientific community for academic research, opening up entirely new pathways for discovery → alphagenome.google/atlas
Learn more → goo.gle/4gZYavF
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialToday we're introducing AlphaGenome Atlas from Google DeepMind: the most comprehensive catalog of how genetic mutations affect molecular biology 🧬 It’s a searchable database that maps the predicted impact of all 9 billion single-letter genetic changes across the human genome.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialWorking alongside HHMI Janelia Research Campus and the scientific community, researchers used AI to combine millions of 2D images into 3D neural shapes, reconstructing a record-breaking 166,000+ neurons.

@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialNew from Google Research: For the first time, scientists have mapped the complete brain and central nervous system of an adult male fruit fly — a key model organism in science. This foundational map is a major milestone in neuroscience and can help accelerate our understanding of the brain.
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialStarting today, WeatherNext 3 will bring these more reliable forecasts across Google products worldwide, including Search, Gemini, and Maps. Learn more: goo.gle/4gRkXd1
@newsfromgoogle.bsky.socialIntroducing WeatherNext 3, our most advanced and accurate global weather AI model to date. It learns directly from real-time observations and uses satellite data to produce a high-res forecast every hour — meaning more people can get more accurate predictions to help them plan ahead.
