NAIROBI, Kenya, July 26 – Google says that it is committed to making artificial intelligence (AI) helpful for businesses by conducting training for business owners.

This was said during an AI in Action event yesterday and follows the recent unveiling of the Gemini AI platform, which Google believes will significantly help businesses scale their operations in an ever-evolving landscape.

Google’s new AI offerings provide business owners the opportunity to engage a collaborative creative partner that can aid in making faster business decisions and driving better performance.

The Gemini platform is designed to assist in various tasks, including writing and content creation, operations and management, business strategy, and planning, as well as marketing and sales.

“AI now offers a multisensory experience, delivering information through visual, auditory, and even video formats. As such, our work in this area has focused on responsibly building helpful products and platforms that can assist businesses to improve and overcome their most pressing challenges—making otherwise static information useful,” said Yvette Baez, Google’s Business Strategist for AI.

Google aims to leverage AI to help African businesses enhance operational efficiency and achieve their commercial goals.

The company has expanded access to its AI models, such as Gemini 1.5 Pro in Vertex AI for cloud customers and developers, and Open Model Gemma, designed to assist customers with various types of code.

The upgraded Gemini Code Assist will further help customers code more efficiently and identify and resolve security threats.
