I used the new Gemini CLI and gave it only the YouTube link of a tech tutorial, and it set up the entire project for me, perfectly. This is a massive win for productivity and builders everywhere. Check it out here: github.com/google-gemini/gem…

New episode of The Agent Factory is out 🎬 I sat down with @addyosmani to talk about long-running agents. the move from stateless chatbots to agents that persist, sleep to save compute, and close out work over hours and days. 3 live demos on ADK 2.0 Gemini 3.5 Flash : → HR onboarding agent that pauses for days waiting on signatures → a browser OS built by a coding agent (runs Doom 🎮) → a 3D pipeline that turned a 156MB Blender file into a browsable retro video store We also got into the HN tension around AI coding ("I'm going back to writing code by hand", "local AI needs to be the norm") and Addy's take on cognitive debt vs cognitive surrender from Beyond Vibe Coding.

The voice AI agent space has gotten wildly big. There are now voice agents for: • receptionists • healthcare • appointment booking • customer support • outbound sales • meetings As someone who used to work on speech AI at AssemblyAI, even I'm having trouble keeping track. Stumbled on morak.ai and it actually makes sense of it all and it's organized by real use cases. Nice work @farhanleo23 👏

5. Soft skills matter more than you think Communication, user empathy, problem understanding - these are becoming the most important skills in an AI world. The technical parts are being solved. What remains most important is how well you can communicate with and direct your agents.

Google just dropped Gemma 4 and these benchmarks are insane Gemma-4-31B thinking is matching models that are 10-20x its size on Elo scores. But it's not just smart, it's built to ACT: • Native function-calling & JSON output • Vision audio processing • 256K context • 140 languages • Agentic workflows out of the box #Gemma4 #AI #OpenSource

So I built a multimodal food tour agent with it 🍜📸 Snap a photo of any dish → cultural context, pairings, and a full food itinerary Open-weight agentic AI just hits different. github.com/google/adk-sample…

Joint Statement: Apple and Google have entered into a multi-year collaboration under which the next generation of Apple Foundation Models will be based on Google's Gemini models and cloud technology. These models will help power future Apple Intelligence features, including a more personalized Siri coming this year. After careful evaluation, Apple determined that Google's Al technology provides the most capable foundation for Apple Foundation Models and is excited about the innovative new experiences it will unlock for Apple users. Apple Intelligence will continue to run on Apple devices and Private Cloud Compute, while maintaining Apple's industry-leading privacy standards.
