Google Is Working On A Feature Called Big Moments To Curate News
https://www.androidpolice.comAs per The Information, Google’s Big Moments feature has been in development for more than a year, and it’s being further developed as a response to Google struggling to keep up with events such as the U.S. Capitol siege on January 6th. Big Moments attempts to provide insight into ongoing events by providing more historical context, highlighting the most authoritative details about a specific incident in real-time, such as death and injury statistics, and updating them as new information becomes available.
Google News is currently handled by algorithms, AI, and machine learning. For Big Moments, Google will have to make editorial decisions to figure out what constitutes a Big Moment that’s worth covering. decisions are “being made algorithmically and based on the signals that are baked into the algorithms and policies,” so the implementation itself may be pretty similar to what Google News currently does.
