Something Hilarious Happens When Potential Customers See That a Product Has AI Features

New research suggests that slapping the "AI" label on products doesn't always go over well with buyers, the Wall Street Journal reports. A new study published this month in Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management found that consumers tended to turn away from products that were promoted as having AI — especially if the items were a high-risk purchase like a car.

Gemini could soon rival ChatGPT with its new privacy feature (Update: A closer look)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-08 01:35:27

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on a temporary chat feature for Gemini. This feature could be similar to ChatGPT’s Temporary Chats, which give users a blank slate for conversation and doesn’t save any memory. We were able to subsequently take a closer look at this feature via more screenshots. Update: July 1, 2025 (8:30 AM ET): We uncovered evidence of a temporary chat feature in Gemini earlier this month (see the original article below). We were only able to provide
