Google’s Gemini AI can now control phone apps to place food orders and schedule rides, but the beta feature feels slow and sometimes clunky. It runs in the background, requires user confirmation before finalizing actions, and occasionally stalls on permissions or location prompts. While accuracy is often high, the experience highlights the need for app designs that better accommodate AI agents. Industry insiders see this as a preview of future mobile assistants, with developers urged to adopt newer integration methods like Model Context Protocol. Leer más

Executives stressed that any future advertising will be introduced thoughtfully to preserve user trust in ChatGPT. Leer más

This shift is framed as both a smart business move to own the platform and a practical way to make the product more intuitive for everyday tasks. Leer más

Users now see up to a full day of use, with fast‑charge capability and improved audio, though the design still lacks landscape video, zoom and swappable batteries. Meta AI powers vision‑assistance, translation and Live AI modes, but accuracy remains mixed and integration is limited to a handful of music and messaging apps. Priced higher than the first model, the Gen 2 glasses represent the most functional Meta offering yet, despite notable restrictions. Leer más
