Google Gemini 2.0: Could this be the beginning of truly autonomous AI?


Google launches Gemini 2.0 with autonomous AI agents, native image generation, and multilingual capabilities, doubling performance while introducing Projects Astra, Mariner, and Jules for enhanced task automation and digital assistance.

“Project Astra now has up to 10 minutes of in-session memory, and can remember conversations you’ve had with it in the past, so you can have a more helpful, personalized experience,” explained Bibo Xu, Group Product Manager at Google DeepMind, during a live demonstration. While competitors have focused on enhancing the capabilities of large language models, Google is betting that the future belongs to AI systems that can actively navigate digital environments and complete complex tasks with minimal human intervention. The company’s approach to rolling out these features gradually, starting with developer access and trusted testers, suggests an awareness of the potential risks involved in deploying autonomous AI systems.
