koiguo/Getty Kicking off the current generative AI frenzy, ChatGPT is already a relatively capable AI, able to answer questions, generate content, and chat with you about almost any topic. But OpenAI isn't stopping there. Rather, the company has big plans for its popular AI, envisioning an evolution that would turn it into a "super assistant." OpenAI's goals for ChatGPT came to light courtesy of a confidential and highly redacted document introduced as part of the Justice Department's antitrus

Google TL;DR Google’s Project Astra aims to be a “universal AI assistant” that understands context, devises plans, and acts on your behalf within Android. A demo showcased Astra assisting with a bike repair by navigating a manual, finding a YouTube tutorial, and potentially contacting a shop. This was powered by an AI agent that controls Android apps by simulating screen inputs, indicating an advanced but still developing capability.

WWDC 2025 is fast approaching, and it looks like iOS will once again be the highlight of the year.

Since its original launch at Google I/O 2024, Project Astra has become a testing ground for Google’s AI assistant ambitions. The multimodal, all-seeing bot is not a consumer product, really, and it won’t soon be available to anyone outside of a small group of testers. What Astra represents instead is a collection of Google’s biggest, wildest, most ambitious dreams about what AI might be able to do for people in the future. Greg Wayne, a research director at Google DeepMind, says he sees Astra as

Users will soon be able to set alternatives like Gemini and ChatGPT as their digital assistants, instead of Siri. This freedom mimics Android’s long-standing openness, but Apple could only make the changes in regions where it is legally mandated to do so.
