Checking the transaction history on Google Pay can tell you where your money went, but going through the long list of merchant names and other payments can get tough to stay on top of. Or at least Google seems to think so, as it’s bringing Gemini to Google Pay. The company has launched Ask Google Pay, an opt-in conversational AI experience built directly into its payments app in India. Users can ask questions about their spending, request savings suggestions and learn about financial concepts. It will even share personalized offers based on their activity. So you could, for example, ask…
AMD reveals budget-friendly RX 9050 GPU. More than anything, it’s a sign of terrible times for gaming
AMD has launched the Radeon RX 9050, an entry-level RDNA 4 graphics card built for 1080p gaming. The retail version comes with 8GB of GDDR6 memory and reportedly starts at $279, although its release is limited to Asia-Pacific, Japan, and Latin America.

The evolution of the operating system (OS) across several device generations has always been driven by necessity. However, with the rapid expansion of the AI agent ecosystem, it is evident that the legacy OS is struggling to catch up. The continued reliance on traditional operating systems to run AI infrastructures has introduced inefficiencies that often prevent AI models from reaching their full potential. DroiClaw (Zhuge) is an AI-native operating system developed by Shanghai Droi Technology. It integrates AI into the underlying system architecture instead of relying on app installations to add AI capabilities. The OS accepts multimodal inputs, including text,…

After rolling out Gemini Spark on macOS earlier this year, Google is now upgrading the Gemini app for Mac with two useful features that could change the way you get things done, whether that means ditching your current AI dictation app or letting Gemini act on whatever’s on your screen. One key press turns speech into clean text anywhere With the latest update, you can long-press the Fn key in any open window and start talking. Gemini transcribes what you say into clean text right at your cursor, cutting out filler words like “ums” and “ahs” as you go. The…
AI isn’t just being forced on us. Even forest monkeys are now a test audience in the name of science
You didn’t ask for an AI summary of your inbox or a chatbot in your camera app, but you got it anyway. The same thing is happening to the monkeys of Costa Rica’s Taboga Forest Reserve. According to a New York Times report, researchers have handed them a touchscreen system that uses artificial intelligence to study how wild capuchins think and learn without ever taking them out of their natural habitat. Even monkeys can’t escape AI now Unlike the AI features popping up across our apps, this one actually has a scientific purpose. The device, called CapuchinAI, is a portable…
Google’s next flagship phones may ask buyers to accept two changes that rarely sit well together: smaller batteries and higher starting prices. Reliable leaker Roland Quandt claims the Pixel 11 Pro will carry a 4,850mAh battery, while the larger Pixel 11 Pro XL will offer 5,115mAh. The same leak puts their UK prices at £1,079 and £1,279, respectively, for models with 256GB of storage. Google has yet to confirm any of these figures, with the Pixel 11 launch scheduled for August 12. The Pixel 11 Pro XL gets the roughest deal The reductions are relatively small, but endurance likely isn’t…
Shared Google Docs have a way of turning feedback into archaeology. Once several reviewers pile into the same file, figuring out which comments still need attention can take longer than making the edits. Google is giving Gemini that sorting job. Its new comment summaries pull feedback from across a document and find discussions that never reached a conclusion. The tools can also draft replies and suggest revisions, so the AI doesn’t disappear once the untangling is done. How Gemini finds unfinished business Users can point Gemini at one reviewer or ask it to group comments around a recurring theme. It…
