AI is rapidly transforming industries and redefining the future of work. However, many organizations face a significant hurdle: bridging the knowledge gap and acquiring the necessary skills to effectively harness the power of AI.
Recognizing this challenge, Google Cloud is set to launch the AI Playground in Shoreditch, Central London, in the first quarter of 2025. This innovative space will serve as a dynamic hub for businesses and individuals to demystify AI, explore its potential, and develop practical expertise.
More than a showcase — dive deep into AI
Google’s powerful Gemini model family — now in its supercharged second generation — takes center stage at the AI Playground, featuring several interactive demos that put its multimodal and agentic capabilities on display. Among the capabilities guests can experience and experiment with first hand are Gemini’s ability to analyze complex data, generate creative formats, and power innovative solutions.
The AI Playground is much more than a technology showcase.
We’ve built the space to serve as an immersive learning environment where visitors can actively engage with AI, participate in hands-on workshops and hackathons, and connect with Google Cloud AI experts. This unique approach fosters a deeper understanding of AI concepts and encourages experimentation with cutting-edge tools and techniques.
