Google Accidentally Releases COSMO AI App
2 May
Summary
- Experimental AI assistant app named COSMO released on Android.
- App includes a local Gemini Nano model, requiring 1.13 GB download.
- COSMO is a testbed for future AI experiences, not for consumers.
An experimental AI assistant application for Android devices, named COSMO, has been published on the Google Play Store. This application, developed by Google Research, aims to bring artificial intelligence directly to users' devices for tasks such as organizing schedules and answering complex queries. The app's large download size of 1.13 GB is attributed to the inclusion of a local Gemini Nano model.
COSMO features a basic chat interface and requests several system permissions upon installation. It is understood to be a testbed for future AI developments rather than a product intended for immediate consumer use. The release seems to have occurred ahead of Google's anticipated announcements, suggesting it may have been an accidental or premature launch.
