androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-11 15:30:44

Adam Molina / Android Authority Gemini support on Google Home and Nest speakers has been a long time coming. The feature has been in preview testing for some lucky US users with specific voices for months now, but Google just announced the exact date when it’ll start showing up for real: October 1. Although this will still be an early access, I can’t wait to get my proverbial hands on it because I’m sick of Google Assistant’s glitches. The inconsistency, frequent bugs, and silly downgrades hav

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-13 03:00:51

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority ChatGPT has become the Xerox of the AI world, but OpenAI no longer has the stage to itself. Google has been pushing Gemini deeper into its ecosystem, and every few weeks it feels like another rival pops up with promises of being faster, smarter, or more useful. So when the latest GPT-5 model launched last month, it felt like a release OpenAI couldn’t afford to get wrong. While OpenAI’s benchmarks claim that GPT-5 is better than the competition, the numbers o

Venezuela Claims Trump’s Video of Strike Against Suspected Drug Smugglers Is AI

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2025-10-14 08:10:04

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that his government had conducted a “kinetic strike” against suspected drug smugglers from Venezuela in a boat traveling in the Caribbean. The strike killed 11 people, according to Trump, and he claims they were all gang members. None of those points has been confirmed, and drug smuggling is not a capital offense, making Trump’s strike almost certainly illegal under international law.
