Google Maps is set for a significant overhaul, relying more heavily on artificial intelligence to guide its two billion users worldwide. The major redesign, unveiled on Thursday, is powered by Google's Gemini technology and introduces two new AI features to the popular digital mapping service.
A key component of this update is "Ask Maps," an advanced tool that expands upon conversational abilities introduced last November. This feature will offer personalised suggestions, such as identifying nearby device charging stations, cafes with shorter queues, or generating comprehensive multi-stop road trip itineraries.
