Google has introduced a new Temporary Chat feature to its Gemini app, allowing users to have private conversations that won’t be saved or used to personalise future responses. These chats will not appear in recent chats or Gemini Apps Activity, and Google says they also won’t be used to train its AI models.
AI search startup Perplexity has made an unexpected $34.5 billion all-cash bid to buy Google’s Chrome browser - a price much higher than its own estimated valuation of $18 billion.
Google has introduced a 'Guided Learning' feature for its Gemini AI platform, arriving just over a week after OpenAI's July 29 launch of a similar 'Study Mode' for ChatGPT. Both tools provide structured learning assistance rather than direct answers, marking a shift in how AI platforms approach educational support.
A new study has found that ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, and Perplexity AI cite wildly different sources of information, raising important questions for brands and content creators trying to stay visible in the age of AI.
Google has introduced a new 'Deep Think' feature for Gemini Ultra subscribers, offering enhanced problem-solving capabilities through extended reasoning time. The tool, now available in the Gemini app, is a refined version of the model that recently achieved gold-medal performance at the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), according to an official blog post by Google.
Google will invest $6 billion to build a 1-gigawatt data centre in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, marking its first such direct investment in India, according to a recent report by Reuters.
Google has announced new AI features in Google Photos that allow users to convert still images into short videos and apply artistic styles to photographs. The tools, currently rolling out to US users, utilise the company's Veo 2 AI model to generate content from existing photos in a user's library.
Google's AI-generated search summaries, part of its 'AI Overviews' feature, are significantly decreasing click-through rates to external websites, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center, a US-based think tank. The research, based on 900 US adults' search behaviours, reveals that users click on traditional website links just 8% of the time when these AI overviews appear, which is nearly half the 15% click-through rate for standard search results.
OpenAI has expanded its computing power sources by partnering with Google Cloud, according to an update on its website. The deal, finalised in May after months of negotiations, marks a strategic shift as the ChatGPT maker diversifies beyond its primary backer, Microsoft.

Google has pulled off a strategic talent acquisition by hiring key executives and engineers from AI coding startup Windsurf, following failed acquisition talks between Windsurf and Google rival OpenAI. Google will pay $2.4 billion in licensing fees to access some of Windsurf's technology while allowing the startup to remain independent, according to a report by Reuters.
