Google's Dreambeans, its weirdest-named AI tool to date, will turn your life into a cartoon
Dreambeans is a curated list of AI-illustrated "stories" culled from the personal data in your Google account.
TL;DR
- Dreambeans, a new app from Google Labs, uses AI to generate personalized "stories" from user data across Google services.
- The app suggests lifestyle ideas such as places to visit, topics to explore, and events to attend.
- It aims to be a "doomscrolling antidote" by providing a limited number of curated stories (10-14) per day.
- User privacy is a focus, with data accessible only to the user, who can also delete it and control connected Google services.
- The name "Dreambeans" refers to the app processing data overnight (dream) and presenting concentrated inspiration in the morning (beans).
- Dreambeans is currently available for eligible U.S.-based Google AI Ultra subscribers on Android and iOS, with a waitlist for personal Google account users.
