Gemini Call for Me might tell your mom you’re running late

The Verge 1 week ago 8

Google appears to be expanding its Call for Me AI feature (now surfaced as Gemini Calling) from business calls to sending quick messages to friends and family. One example shown in an APK teardown is “Call Mom and tell her I will be 15 minutes late.” As a result, Gemini may be able to handle simple, phone-call-style text messages to relatives, rather than fully automating long catch-up calls.

Search Engines Draw 20 Times More Traffic Than A.I. Chatbots

Trending Topics 1 week ago 9

Search engines still receive far more web traffic than AI chatbots, according to OneLittleWeb’s analysis of visits across 10,171 websites. Search engines logged 162.19 billion visits in June 2026 versus 8.26 billion for AI chatbots. The gap narrows only in part because both categories declined from the previous month, while the remaining traffic share stays concentrated in Google for search and ChatGPT for chatbots.
