Google Circle to Search can now solve maths problems for students: Here’s how the feature works – Crypto News

on

Tech giant Google has unveiled a significant update to its Circle to Search feature during the annual developer conference, Google I/O. This enhancement aims to empower students by providing assistance with math and physics problems directly from their Android smartphones or tablets.

The revamped Circle to Search now offers a specialized tool tailored to guide students through solving homework problems in mathematics and physics. Unlike merely providing answers, Google emphasizes that the feature is designed to foster a deeper understanding of problem-solving techniques, aiding students in learning how to tackle challenges independently.

Through Circle to Search, students can activate AI-driven assistance for mathematical word problems, which systematically breaks down the problem and provides step-by-step instructions for finding the correct solution. Google underscores that the feature is intended as a supportive educational tool, rather than a shortcut for completing assignments.

This announcement comes amidst ongoing discussions surrounding the integration of AI tools in education, with concerns raised about potential misuse by students seeking to expedite their homework. Google addresses these concerns by positioning Circle to Search as a resource focused on facilitating learning and skill development.

Looking ahead, Google revealed plans to further expand the capabilities of Circle to Search. Soon, the functionality will be upgraded to tackle more intricate mathematical equations, encompassing symbolic formulas, diagrams, and graphs, suggests the American company.

Google will utilize LearnLM, its most recent AI model optimized explicitly for educational tasks, to drive these advanced capabilities.

In a blog post announcing the update, Google stated, “Starting today, Circle to Search can now help students with homework, giving them a deeper understanding, not just an answer — directly from their phones and tablets. When students circle a prompt they’re stuck on, they’ll get step-by-step instructions to solve a range of physics and math word problems without leaving their digital info sheet or syllabus. Later this year, Circle to Search will be able to help solve even more complex problems involving symbolic formulas, diagrams, graphs, and more. This is all possible due to our LearnLM effort to enhance our models and products for learning.”
