Google Rolling Out First AI Core Update On Pixel 8 Pro

If you're using a Pixel 8 Pro, be on the lookout today for an update to a new Google app called AI Core.

Per the Google Play Store description, "AI Core powers features across Android and provides apps with the latest Al models": Al-driven features run directly on your device using the latest foundation models To keep those features smart, your device updates the Al models automatically Al Core manages these updates while providing Al functionality to other apps Since the initial Android 14 update, Pixel phones and tablets (including all Tensor devices we checked) have contained a "stub" placeholder for AI Core. This background service is like Android System Intelligence or Private Compute Services and something you won't really interact with. That said, the App info page links to "Additional settings in the app." You're presented with a sole toggle to "Enable AICore Persistent" to "Allow AiCore to carve out memory and run persistently." It's off by default and something end users should not switch. You can also access it from the Developer options. Google is now widely rolling out the first update for all Pixel 8 Pro devices running the stable and beta (QPR1 + QPR2) releases. The app goes from version 0.Release.539035001 to 0.Release.582652206.  A teardown of the app confirms that today's build is specific to "husky" (8 Pro), and we're not seeing an update for the Pixel 8 or older devices yet.

Google Rolls Out "AI Core" Update For Pixel 8 Pro Devices

By Paulo Montenegro, on 11/27/2023 16:31 PST

Google has initiated the deployment of its inaugural AI Core update for Pixel 8 Pro users, introducing a new application aptly named AI Core. This app, as described on the Google Play Store, serves as the powerhouse behind various Android features, supplying apps with the latest Artificial Intelligence (AI) models.

It is worth mentioning that AI-driven functionalities operate directly on the user's device, utilizing cutting-edge foundational models, and, to ensure the continued intelligence of these features, the device autonomously updates the AI models.

AI Core also takes charge of managing these updates while extending AI functionality to other applications. Since the introduction of the Android 14 update, Pixel phones and tablets, including all Tensor devices examined, have contained a background service known as a "stub" for AI Core. This service functions similarly to Android System Intelligence or Private Compute Services, operating discreetly in the background without direct user interaction.

Despite its inconspicuous nature, the App info page offers access to "Additional settings in the app." Here, users encounter a singular toggle for "Enable AICore Persistent," allowing AI Core to carve out memory and operate persistently. Importantly, this feature is turned off by default, and end users are advised not to toggle it. Alternatively, access to this setting can be found in the Developer options.

The update is currently being broadly disseminated to all Pixel 8 Pro devices running both stable and beta (QPR1 + QPR2) releases. The application transitions from version 0.Release.539035001 to 0.Release.582652206. A teardown of the app affirms that this update is specifically tailored for the "husky" (8 Pro) model, with no indication of a corresponding update for the Pixel 8 or earlier devices at this time.
