Google’s team released Google AI Edge Foresight, a Mac AI note-taker meant to compete with products like Granola by capturing meeting notes in a split-screen workflow. The app uses the on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 model with 740 million parameters and is designed to work completely offline. Users can build a local knowledge base from uploaded documents and ask real-time questions using their meeting notes and transcripts.
Google Cloud introduced Gemini agent, a unified assistant that can act autonomously across web, mobile, desktop, and tools like the command line, Workspace, Microsoft 365, and Slack. It adds persistent execution with memories shared across channels and can run on different models, including Gemini Flash and “Argon” for long-horizon work, with spend caps that pause agents when triggered. This shifts enterprise AI use toward always-on, multi-tool delegated work that persists and can enforce token-based cost limits per project.
Google released an experimental offline note-taking app, Google AI Edge Foresight, that transcribes meetings and audio files on a Mac and summarizes them while you take notes. It uses Google’s on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 model and is free to use. Users can write shorthand bullet points during the meeting and have the app convert them into polished notes from the transcript, without sending the audio to the cloud.
Google will remove Gemini Flash and Gemini Pro from free personal accounts starting tomorrow, leaving only Flash-Lite. The cut removes Flash and Pro entirely from non-subscribers, where Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite becomes the only option. Paid plans change too: the $4.99/month tier loses Pro while the $19.99/month tier keeps Flash, Pro, and Deep Think, and users also get a new low/medium/high effort setting tied to usage limits.
Google is launching a universal Gemini AI agent that can carry out work tasks across apps and devices in the background. It was announced on Thursday at the Gemini at Work event. The agent will be available in the Gemini Enterprise app and will integrate with Workspace apps and platforms like Slack and Microsoft 365 while keeping context in the cloud.
Google has launched a public web-based SynthID Detector to flag AI-generated images, video, and audio created with supported tools. The detector is available to everyone today, but users must sign in first with a Google, OpenAI, or Apple account. It will later expand to cover Apple’s Image Playground, but it still misses AI content without SynthID watermarks and cannot tell which parts of edited media are real versus fake.
