Nvidia has released PAIR (Personal AI Router) in open beta on GitHub, a system that lets users split GPU-intensive AI agent workloads into parallel subtasks and offload them to other computers on the same local network.

Google has launched Gmail Live, Docs Live, and Keep Live, letting users speak naturally to search emails, draft documents, and organize notes instead of typing.

The features are rolling out now to eligible Google AI subscribers, with Workspace availability expected soon.
