Google Chrome may be taking up more of your storage than expected thanks to a large on-device AI model file that, in some cases, is being automatically downloaded to the browser's system folders. Users who have noticed unexplained drops in their available desktop device storage are now discovering that Chrome is installing a 4GB weights.bin file inside their browser directory when certain AI features are enabled. The weights.bin file in question is connected to Google's Gemini Nano AI model, which powers Chrome AI tools like scam detection, writing assistance, autofill, and suggestion feature...

Google Home users can now ask Gemini to complete more complex, multi-step tasks and combine multiple tasks in a single command. Google has updated Gemini for Home to Gemini 3.1, which it says will improve the smart home assistant's ability to interpret and act on requests. The upgrade will also make Gemini for Home better at handling recurring and all-day events and allow users to "move around" upcoming events. Last month, Google also updated Gemini for Home with improvements for understanding natural language and identifying devices correctly. The upgrades follow reports of bugs in Google's ...

**New arxiv paper just landed that's worth reading if you're interested in stylometry, AI revision, or the prose-writing strand of the 4.7 discussion.** Berkeley researcher Tom van Nuenen ran 300 personal narratives through three frontier models (Claude-class, ChatGPT-class, Gemini-class) under three prompt conditions: generic "improve this," generic "rewrite this," and explicitly "revise this while preserving the original voice." He measured 13 stylometric markers in input and output: function words, contractions, first-person pronouns, vocabulary diversity, sentence length variance, punctu...

Google Search queries hit an "all time high" in the first quarter of 2026, according to a statement from CEO Sundar Pichai published as part of Alphabet's earnings on Wednesday. "Our AI investments and full stack approach are lighting up every part of the business," Pichai says. "Search had a strong quarter with AI experiences driving usage, queries at an all time high, and 19% revenue growth." He also notes that Q1 was "our strongest quarter ever for our consumer AI plans, driven by the Gemini App" and that the company now has more than 350 million paid subscriptions, with "YouTube and Googl...

Over the past several weeks, I've been working on HyperResearch, a Claude Code skill harness that converts CC into the most intelligent deep research framework out there. HyperResearch surpasses OpenAI, Google, and NVIDIA's offerings in the agentic search space based on DeepResearch Bench. It's open-source, installable with a single command, and uses your CC subscription, so you don't have to pay for OpenAI or Gemini Pro. It uses a 16-step pipeline that creates a searchable, persistent knowledge store during each session that can be built upon in later searches. I designed it to align with ...

GM says this update represents "one of the largest deployments of Gemini in the industry," and that "customers will notice an...

A recent paper published in *JMIR Mental Health* (Csigó & Cserey, 2026) caught my attention. The researchers administered the 10 standard Rorschach inkblot cards to three multimodal LLMs (GPT-4o, Grok 3, Gemini 2.0) and coded their responses using the Exner Comprehensive System. They analyzed the models' "perceptual styles," determinants (like human movement vs. color), and human-related content themes. However, I am seriously struggling to understand the methodological validity of this setup, and I’m curious what the scientific community thinks. My main concerns are: Massive Data Cont...

Google's AI meeting notetaker is no longer limited to Google Meets - Gemini can also generate summaries and transcripts of in-person meetings now, as well as meetings on Zoom and Microsoft Teams, as first reported by 9to5Google. Support for in-person meetings was previously limited to alpha users and only available on Android. Google's support page for the feature notes that, "If a user who is not in person wants to join the meeting, you can transition the meeting to a normal video call." The feature also works for impromptu meetings - Google says you "don't need to be in a meeting room" or i...

LLM evaluation on feature model analysis using semi-formal blueprints shows reasoning-optimized models (Grok 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro) achieve 88-89% accuracy vs solver oracles.

I’ve been building plugins for Claude Code, and the first version of the idea was very Claude-focused. That made sense at the start. Claude Code has a real plugin model, hooks are useful, and it is one of the few agent tools where plugins can actually become part of a daily workflow. But after building a few integrations, I kept running into the same uncomfortable question: If I write the useful part of a plugin once, why should I rewrite or repackage the same thing again for Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, and whatever comes next? The actual plugin logic is often not Claude-specific. Th...
