Washington, October 27 (QNA) - Forbes launched a beta version of a generative AI search platform built with Google Cloud to provide personalized searches for readers.

Forbes is an American publishing and media company that publishes the most famous magazine in the field of publishing lists, wealth statistics, and monitoring the growth of financial institutions and companies around the world.

The platform is called Adelaide. Readers can ask specific questions or input general topic areas and get recommended articles about their query, along with a summarized answer to whatever they asked... as long as its within Forbes coverage scope.

Chief digital and information officer at Forbes, Vadim Supitskiy, said the publication wanted to increase engagement with both search and its stories. "Engagement with search has been pretty standard for us, so we thought it would be a good opportunity to innovate using generative AI and boost the number of users that look for information."

Readers can tap the Adelaide button on the website (or go directly to the Adelaide beta page) and ask questions like "Who is the richest person in Nebraska?" Using the publications library of news stories, opinion pieces, and lists, Adelaide will create a summary about Warren Buffett and then show related articles the user may want to read.

Forbes has high hopes for Adelaide, and expand Adelaides knowledge base to its entire archive, dating back to 1917, when Forbes magazine was founded. (QNA)
