Google has cooked up an experimental new AI tool called Tabletop that generates personalized collaborative hubs to help you coordinate with family and friends. The Tabletop platform shares some visual similarities with workplace management apps like Asana and Monday, but with built-in AI functionality that lets you code custom interactive tools by describing them, such as savings trackers, task boards, event plans, and more.
“Simply add your links, files, and ideas, then invite @tabletop – or choose a starter template – to generate personalized interactive travel itineraries, dinner surveys, expense allocators, and tournament materials,” Roman Nurik, head of design and engineering at Google Labs, said in the blog post. “Once your space is ready, drop the invite link into your group chat to allow everyone to jump in and use it at once like a Google Doc.”
Access to the Tabletop beta is rolling out via a waitlist and is currently limited to those over 18 in the United States. However, some of the use case examples Nurik provides in his video above would clearly require giving children or teens access to Tabletop, and using it for personal family planning seems like a compelling alternative to stuffy workplace software, so the age requirement might only be in place while Tabletop is in public testing.
