The timing of this really makes it feel like a “I’m still here!” message after Apple’s announcements. If this was planned before Apple’s announcements I would think there would be more details.
Google has obviously been working on AI stuff for quite a while. I mean Gemini exists, to pick the most obvious example. And since the industry is so gung ho on AI you know they were going to be pushed on device/OS integration pretty soon no matter what.
Microsoft recently announced their new Copilot PCs. In some ways that was a hardware announcement but they also got something of a blackeye for the recall feature.
Two days after Apple announces all sorts of AI features on all their OSes (except vision) coming to many of their devices soon this announcement suddenly shows up?
They’re the only big company with a consumer OS who hasn’t announced their plan yet. This feels a little bit like a “don’t forget about us“.
I will be very curious to see what they do when they put out more concrete information.
