Excited to bring the power of Gemini to @googlemaps navigation for walking and cycling, globally.
Use Gemini in Maps as a neighborhood tour guide (you could learn something new!) or to send a text with your ETA while walking or biking -- all hands-free.

Menu Interactions is now the #1 metric in GBP Performance dashboard. For F&B, this says it all: menus drive visibility, engagement, and decisions. Treat menus as structured data - not static content. Google makes this explicit by prompting to review menus Is your menu up to date?

Google takes their OTA Ad revenue seriously!

The English-language GBP Help Community appears to have included a beta version of ChatAI. I didn't notice this until today. This could be a user-friendly feature. I hope it makes it to the Japanese version soon.😉

Save your users time and help them find their ideal places faster with AI-powered summaries in our Places API.

ALT A white UI card for "Sapori di Casa" restaurant is overlaid on a bright, modern restaurant interior. The card displays the restaurant name, address, a 4.8 star rating, "Restaurant · $$$", "Open now · Closes 11 PM", and green buttons for "Dine In" and "Take out", plus a black "Directions" button with a compass icon, and icons for bookmark and heart. Below this is a descriptive text starting "Beloved Italian restaurant in downtown spotlighting fresh, house-made pasta," which is noted as "Summarized by AI" with an AI icon at the bottom.

LLMs do not crawl the web, do not maintain indexes, and do not enforce ranking algorithms at internet scale. They operate as presentation and reasoning layers on top of the classic information retrieval (IR) pipeline.
The recent paper Why Language Models Hallucinate (Kalai, Nachum, Vempala, Zhang, 2025) shows why this distinction matters: LLMs inevitably hallucinate due to statistical limits and evaluation incentives. Without grounding in real retrieval systems, they cannot provide reliable search.
